it's loving infuriating that we have to have these century-old arguments over and over lmao The Question of Co-Operative Societies at the International Socialist Congress in Copenhagen quote:Together with Guesde we moved two (main) amendments: firstly, to replace the words “(the co-operative societies) help the workers to prepare the democratisation and socialisation of production and distribution” by the words: “(the co-operative societies) help to a certain extent to prepare the functioning of production and distribution after the expropriation of the capitalist class.” This amendment, which stylistically is not very happily formulated, does not mean that the co-operative societies cannot help the workers at present, but that the future mode of production and distribution, which is being prepared now by the co-operative societies, can begin to function only after the expropriation of the capitalists. The second amendment concerned the point which speaks of the relation of co-operative societies to the Party. We proposed either to add the words “which (i. e., aid to the workers’ struggle) is in any case desirable from the standpoint of socialism”, or to replace the whole of this point by another expressly recommending socialists in the co-operative societies to advocate and insist upon direct support for the class struggle of the proletariat.

Guyovich posted:it's loving infuriating that we have to have these century-old arguments over and over lmao yep https://www.marxists.org/archive/luxemburg/1900/reform-revolution/ch07.htm quote:The workers forming a co-operative in the field of production are thus faced with the contradictory necessity of governing themselves with the utmost absolutism. They are obliged to take toward themselves the role of capitalist entrepreneur – a contradiction that accounts for the usual failure of production co-operatives which either become pure capitalist enterprises or, if the workers’ interests continue to predominate, end by dissolving. they're just huffing richard wolffs farts in between disparaging actual communists and tweeting at AOC asking for donations

state capitalism has the same incentive to revert to rentier capitalism imo not that this really matters all that much, any sane socialist economy is going to be a mish mash of coops for smaller firms and labor-union/state controlled enterprises Karl Barks fucked around with this message at 13:43 on May 30, 2019 |

Flowers For Algeria posted:only if you don’t extirpate the capitalist ideology from the workers minds you can't "extirpate the capitalist ideology" under market conditions. Karl Barks posted:state capitalism has the same incentive to revert to rentier capitalism imo There actually isn't any incentive for a state capitalist system to extract rents, because it's already accruing all surplus value from labor. Rent only makes sense because you're extracting it from people who don't work for yourself. That's why North Korea doesn't have income or "property" taxes. Rents are cost redundancies that make the system more inefficient. Pener Kropoopkin fucked around with this message at 15:32 on May 30, 2019 |

Postoyevsky posted:yep The reason Luxembourg gives for coops being untenable in a market filled with capitalists is that the workers would have to work themselves for intolerably hard the same way capitalist exploiters do.

But that's not as relevant in the modern day when we have overtime laws and OSHA and stuff It's still relevant because capitalists break labor regulations all the time. That doesn't mean that coops are ipso facto "untenable," but actually existing coops still have to accumulate surplus value to survive under market conditions. Co-op workers basically end up having to exploit themselves or others anyway, as is the case where Mondragon employs seasonal labor that doesn't have any stake in the company. I'd still say there's an inherent value in owning your own workplace collectively, but it's not the panacea that Black Socialists implies it is.

Co-op workers basically end up having to exploit themselves or others anyway, as is the case where Mondragon employs seasonal labor that doesn't have any stake in the company. I think this is true of any "socialist-ish" mode of production that exists inside a capitalist framework. a co-op is just a governance model/structure, it's in some ways ambivalent to the superstructure around it. which is to say, co-ops alone are not socialism in the same way that SOEs are not socialism
