Aug 24, 2025 - The ‘Twin Bill 5s’ and De-Democratization

By Saeed Rahnema

The recent book by Marcelo Vieta, Workers' Self-Management in Argentina: Contesting Neo-liberalism by Occupying Companies, Creating Cooperatives, and Recuperating Autogestion (Haymarket Books, Chicago, 2020), provides a wealth of information and analysis on the emergence of worker-run production cooperatives in Argentina's crisis-ridden industries. It highlights workers' prominent role in occupying and self-managing factories that were either shut down or on the brink of closure following the economic crisis of the 1990s. The book also offers fascinating examples of how these worker-managed units were established.

Aug 18, 2025 - Nurse-Patient Ratios: Saving Lives and Rebuilding Nurses’ Morale

By James T. Brophy and Margaret M. Keith

A new academic study is proposing a bold new solution for Ontario's hospital crisis - life-saving nurse-to-patient ratios. The authors of the study extensively researched the inadequate nurse staffing levels in Ontario, contrasting them with mandated nursing ratios in places like California and Queensland (Australia). The study found that nurse-to-patient ratios make a positive difference for patients and staff, while saving costs and improving the state of the healthcare system.

Aug 16, 2025 - BDS@20: Resilience, Resistance, and Regeneration

In the current most depraved phase of the US-Israeli livestreamed genocide against 2.3 million Palestinians in Gaza, what Jewish Voice for Peace calls Israel's "final solution," we are marking the BDS movement's 20th anniversary to affirm our collective power in isolating Israel's 77-year-old regime of settler colonial apartheid against Indigenous Palestinians like never before.

During Tunisia's sweltering summer months, electricity demand often surges to record-breaking levels as air conditioning systems run at full capacity everywhere from homes and workplaces to grocery stores and hospitals - for those who can afford it. The state-owned Tunisian Electricity and Gas Company (STEG) is currently implementing electrical load-shedding, or "delestage" - a deliberate power-cutting measure.
