    The activists who have put together Ours to Hack and to Own argue for a new kind of online economy: platform cooperativism, which combines the rich heritage of cooperatives with the promise of 21st-century technologies, free from monopoly, exploitation, and surveillance.
  4. Public Ownership and Common Ownership 
    Resource Type: Article
    First Published: 1947
    Under public ownership the workers are not masters of their work; they may be better treated and their wages may be higher than under private ownership; but they are still exploited.
  5. Reclaim the power! Democratic energy must replace corporate capture
    Resource Type: Article
    First Published: 2014
    Democratising energy would save thousands of lives a year in Britain alone -- releasing us from the clutches of corporate utilities, and building an energy commons in which we are all owners and participants, no longer captive, exploited consumers. More than that, it would be a big step forward in saving the planet.
  6. Socialisation (Part I)
    Resource Type: Article
    First Published: 1920
    Marx never spoke of socialisation: he spoke of the expropriation of the expropriators.
  7. Socialisation (Part II)
    Resource Type: Article
    First Published: 1920
    Socialism cannot be achieved by avoiding the class struggle. Socialisation which is devised to spare the profits of the capitalist class cannot be a path to Socialism.
  8. The Socialist Register 1979
    Volume 16: A Survey of Movements & Ideas
    Resource Type: Serial Publication (Periodical)
    First Published: 1979
    A series of essays on the state of the global economy.
  9. Socialization 
    Resource Type: Article
    First Published: 1919   Published: 1920
    Socialization according to Bauer's recipe is legal expropriation without economic expropriation, it is what any bourgeois government might propose. The capitalist value of enterprises will be paid to the employers in compensation and henceforth they will receive in interest on bonds what they formerly received in profit. This socialization replaces private capitalism with State capitalism; the State takes on the task of sweating profits from the workers and giving it to capitalists.
  10. Wanted: A new model of public ownership
    Resource Type: Article
    The challenge to the left is to develop an alternative model of ownership.

Mission Connexions exists to support individuals and groups working for freedom and social justice. We work to maintain and make available a record of the theory and practice of people struggling against oppression and for social change. We believe that the more we know about the struggles, victories, and defeats of the past, and about those who took part in them, the better equipped we will be to bring a new world into being. Connexions maintains a physical archive of books and documents, and is engaged in an ongoing project to build and expand an indexed digital archive of documents. We try to feature a wide variety of resources reflecting a diversity of viewpoints and approaches to social change within our overall mandate of support for democracy, civil liberties, freedom of expression, universal human rights, secularism, equality, economic justice, environmental responsibility, and the creation and preservation of community. We are internationalist in our orientation, but as a Canadian-based project we feature an especially extensive collection of Canadian documents and profiles of Canadian activist organizations.
