Organizing Amazon

Reviews / Votes

"Particularly valuable to readers familiar with UK labor relations [while] those outside the UK will be most informed by the analysis of rank-and-file worker leadership development, likely relevant to the success of union organizing efforts worldwide. Recommended." CHOICE "Organizing Amazon represents the pinnacle challenge facing the global labor movement, and among the sites of struggle, Coventry, England, stands out as a premier example of how workers can build and sustain a union in the face of Amazon's relentless union-busting. The book relays vital stories - told from the Coventry shop floor with passion and detail. Anyone attempting a serious organizing campaign at Amazon needs to study and apply the rich lessons it offers." Jonathan Rosenblum, Organizer and author of Beyond $15: Immigrant Workers, Faith Activists, and the Revival of the Labor Movement "A comprehensive, wide-ranging and timely study of Amazon workers' ongoing struggle for a collective union voice. A thought-provoking assessment of the power of workers standing together against the unacceptable face of capitalism" Paul Nowak, TUC General Secretary





"It's great to see a book that focuses on a union's strategy and tactics to challenge the might of Amazon's labour exploitation. The voice of workers is loud and clear. All trade union organizers should read this book to understand how to collectivise a diverse workforce with a virulently anti-union employer." Jane Holgate, University of Leeds "A powerful reminder that digital capital is not invincible, as told by the workers rising against it." Alessandro Delfanti, University of Toronto and author of The Warehouse:
