Labour issues online
Whether you love them, hate them or don't even know what the internet looks
like - whatever your relationship to online technologies, most of us will
find the internet encroaching on greater & greater areas of our public
and/or private lives over the next ten years. Activists on both the right
and left of politics have been pushing their messages through online
technologies [the internet and e-mail] for several years now. Unions should
get their act together and do the same, according to Eric Lee.
Eric is the founder & editor of a large international labour website
entitled LabourStart which aims to bring daily news and coverage of labour
struggles and events to interested people across the globe. Eric is also
the author of "The Labour Movement and the Internet: The New
Internationalism" (Pluto Press, London, 1996) and has written a number of
articles on the same subject. In August, 1999, he visited Australia as a
guest of Adult Learners Week, giving talks and workshops on practical uses
for the world wide web and online communications to both adult educators
and unions.
On today's program, we explore these topics [and many more] in an extended
discussion with Eric Lee on the role of the internet within the
international labour movement and the uses it can be put to by unions and
grassroots, rank-and-file activists alike.
