Vi kan styra oss själva / We can govern ourselves

Why does democracy end when we go to work? When Patrik Witkowsky, founder of the Center for Employee Ownership and Documentary Filmmakers, began to delve into the issue of economic democracy, he discovered a blind spot in the Swedish debate. Despite Sweden's historically high level of equality, the idea of ​​letting employees own and control the companies they work for has never really taken root. In We Can Control Ourselves, Patrik Witkowsky presents historical, political and economic arguments for why it is time to expand the scope of democracy. Both because each of us deserves more power at work and because society as a whole benefits from it.
