Autogestion
Definition
(a) Workers' self-management. It includes worker's collectives and cooperatives and it is connected to syndicalism. Classical economic philosophers, such as Stuart Mills (liberal) and Karl Marx noted the efficiency of the model. Funnily enough, while Mills believed that companies run by autogestion would eventually displace capital-managed firms, Marx didn't.
(b) (The construction of) a self-managed economy. Closely connected to the notion of social democracy, autogestion in this context aims at building an economic system that will avoid the inequalities, irrationalities and crises created by capital- and profit-driven economic models.
