Miguel Afonso Caetano<p>"[W]hile "IP" can be bought and sold by the capital classes, process knowledge is inseparably vested in the minds and muscle-memory of their workers. People who own the instructions are constitutionally prone to assuming that making the recipe is the important part, while following the recipe is donkey-work you can assign to any freestanding oaf who can take instruction.<br>(...)<br>he exaltation of "IP" over process knowledge is part of the ancient practice of bosses denigrating their workers' contribution to the bottom line. It's key to the myth that workers can be replaced by AI: an AI can consume all the "IP" produced by workers, but it doesn't have their process knowledge. It can't, because process knowledge is embodied and enmeshed, it is relational and physical. It doesn't appear in training data.</p><p>In other words, elevating "IP" over process knowledge is a form of class war. And now that the world's store of process knowledge has been sent to the global south, the class war has gone racial.<br>(...)<br>Bosses would love it if process knowledge didn't matter, because then workers could finally be tamed by industry. We could just move the "IP" around to the highest bidders with the cheapest workforces. But Wang's book makes a forceful argument that it's easier to build up a powerful, resilient society based on process knowledge than it is to do so with IP. What good is a bunch of really cool recipes if no one can follow them?</p><p>I think that bosses are, psychoanalytically speaking, haunted by the idea that their workers own the process knowledge that is at the heart of their profits. That's why bosses are so obsessed with noncompete "agreements." If you can't own your workers' expertise, then you must own your workers..."</p><p><a href="https://pluralistic.net/2025/09/08/process-knowledge/#dance-monkey-dance" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">pluralistic.net/2025/09/08/pro</span><span class="invisible">cess-knowledge/#dance-monkey-dance</span></a></p><p><a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/IP" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>IP</span></a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/ProcessKnowledge" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ProcessKnowledge</span></a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/Capitalism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Capitalism</span></a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/ClassStruggle" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ClassStruggle</span></a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/LabourStruggle" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>LabourStruggle</span></a></p>

Miguel Afonso Caetano<p>"I try to show that the Left in Europe, both the radical and the institutional, was caught in a bind by the strategies of employers, conservative political forces, and elements of the state. In both cases they were forced to choose between unappealing options. Perhaps the most pressing was to radicalize or moderate their strategies. They’re of course not the only agents in this story, and the Left is not in total control of the situation. But the ultimate outcome of the decisions taken at this critical moment was the evacuation of the working class from left structures and a weakening of labor more broadly.</p><p>There are clashes over what to do about economic restructuring and automation, participation in management structures and government, and media and communication technologies. An older generation of self-educated industrial worker activists rub up against a younger generation of educated, often white-collar members, each with different views on priorities and conduct. I mainly focus on the main electoral parties of the Left because they were the main organizations that workers joined and voted for at the time, and the ones that shaped how millions of people thought about the world. The radical left had sparser influence even if they suffered a broadly similar outcome.</p><p>In brief, the West European left went into decline not because of an unstoppable neoliberalism and a weakened manufacturing-based economy, but because it failed to recognize and mobilize new constituencies of workers, including migrants and women, and instead embraced a kind of “third way” social capitalism."</p><p><a href="https://jacobin.com/2025/08/european-socialism-left-1970s-defeat" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">jacobin.com/2025/08/european-s</span><span class="invisible">ocialism-left-1970s-defeat</span></a></p><p><a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/Europe" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Europe</span></a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/Socialism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Socialism</span></a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/WorkersMovement" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>WorkersMovement</span></a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/ClassStruggle" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ClassStruggle</span></a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/ThirdWay" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ThirdWay</span></a></p>

Miguel Afonso Caetano<p>"On July 2, United Food and Commercial Workers (UFCW) Local 1518 in British Columbia announced that more than 500 Uber drivers in Greater Victoria have unionized. </p><p>This historic decision follows months of organizing among drivers and marks the first ever union certification of app-based drivers in Canada. </p><p>Uber only began operating in Victoria in June 2023 and recently expanded its service across B.C. </p><p>UFCW 1518 is the province’s largest private sector union local, representing more than 28,000 workers in the retail, grocery, health care and cannabis industries. </p><p>The mega-local has made significant organizing breakthroughs over the past several years. After successfully unionizing the B.C. cannabis sector, 1518 also secured representation for nearly 400 temporary foreign agricultural workers at Highline Mushrooms farms in Langley and Abbotsford. This was the largest group of agricultural workers ever to organize in Canadian history and a major development in the struggle for temporary foreign worker rights. </p><p>“UFCW 1518 is proud to welcome Greater Victoria’s Uber drivers as our newest members following their historic union certification. As BC’s largest private sector union, we are well-positioned to support these groundbreaking workers as they embark on negotiating Canada’s first ever collective agreement for rideshare drivers,” the union said in a press release reporting the certification."</p><p><a href="https://www.readthemaple.com/uber-drivers-have-unionized-for-the-first-time-in-canada/" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">readthemaple.com/uber-drivers-</span><span class="invisible">have-unionized-for-the-first-time-in-canada/</span></a></p><p><a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/Canada" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Canada</span></a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/Uber" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Uber</span></a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/GigEconomy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>GigEconomy</span></a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/Unions" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Unions</span></a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/LaborUnions" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>LaborUnions</span></a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/RideHailing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>RideHailing</span></a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/ClassStruggle" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ClassStruggle</span></a></p>
