Brando Milanovic wrote up a pretty clear-eyed description of the problems with worker-owned enterprises, even in states that market socialists look to as better examples such as the former Yugoslavia [1]. He speaks with some authority, as both an economist and someone who worked in one of those. To me, it seems like there are important unsolved problems with worker-managed enterprises at scale (exceptions like Mondragon notwithstanding), but I’m speaking as an armchair observer. I agree with the aims involved (workers should enjoy the full fruits of their labor and have control over their working conditions), but it seems there are still challenges to scaling this sort of organization up. 1. https://glineq.blogspot.com/2021/11/socialist-enterprise-power-structure.html https://glineq.blogspot.com/2021/11/socialist-enterprise-pow...
