The carnation revolution and workers’ control

Abstract

In this article we argue that the fundamental feature of the 1974/75 Portuguese revolution is the sociological struggle of social classes within companies and, above all, in large industrial units. We argue, in the context of a literature review, that this dispute should be defined as workers’ control, distinguishing it from its opposite - production control, that is, state-national control - or from forms of co-management or self-management, which often appear mixed.

Keywords:
Carnation Revolution; Workers’ Control; Self-management
