From Anarcho-Syndicalist Review Anarcho-Syndicalist Review Issue 91, Winter 2025
**via email**
As always, we welcome articles, reviews, responses to material published in ASR or to ongoing struggles.
As we enter a new year, we know we are entering a period of stepped-up attacks, in the U.S. and around the world. Everywhere, the bosses have decided that they want more, and have committed to unrelenting war on workers and the planet. But their insatiable greed for power and profit is also a sign of their weakness. The toppling of the Assad regime demonstrates that even the most ruthless tyrant is not secure. (Whether Syrian workers are well-enough organized to build a new society after so brutal a civil war, surrounded on all sides by enemies of democracy and human rights, remains to be seen.)
Our new issue will look to the successful labor effort in South Korea to overturn martial law, the organization of anarcho-syndicalists in Pakistan, and the continuing legacy of mutual aid. In recent weeks we have seen coordinated strikes by Amazon and Starbucks workers, demonstrating that they are unwilling to sit passively by as the courts and National Labor Relations Board dither over whether they will be permitted to organize. Think how much more powerful these strikes could be if we returned to the old tradition of honoring picket lines and enforcing workers' rights through our own direct action. We hope to join you in building this sort of labor movement in the coming years. Is your subscription to ASR current? If not, why not renew (or begin) your subscription now, so that we can send you our new issue as soon as it comes back from the printer?
