The Take

[No. 355728]

I recommend everybody to see, The Take (http://www.nfb.ca/webextension/thetake/) by Naomi Klein. It’s interesting to see how some industrial factories in Argentina, that have been taken over by the workers, are driven after anarchist principals, and quite effective. However the movie lack some basic facts, but its still interesting.

ARGENTINA: DEADLINE PASSES FOR ZANON

Last week we told you about the embattled workers at Zanon, whose response to
the closing down of their factory caught the imagination of the world. This
week, the deadline passed for the company's previous owners or anyone else to
buy the factory -- with no one making an offer. This has raised the stakes and
made your support for the Zanon workers even more important. To see the latest

Finally, there's been some movement around the Zanon factory in Argentina, which has been run by the workers quite successfully since the previous owner ran away. Despite missing a court-set deadline, the former owner has now moved to regain control of the factory. The latest news and a chance for you to send off your message if you've not yet done so, is here:
