hi michel<br><br>havent read that piece, but I would guess that yes, strike action against mondragon would be justified in these globalized factories they own<br><br>when we where in arrasate it was discussed - michel lezamiz and fred freundlich - there was a cooperatization process underway in these overseas acquisitions, and research was being done on the problems of mondragon as a globalized neoliberal corporation... the cooperatization process had problems even before the Great Recession, and I think it basically stopped or went in reverse since... <br>
<br>we where told many of the worker-owners "didnt join mondragon so they could become capitalists" and so on... there is a PhD on the phenomena<br><br>-N<br><br>
