If we choose 1980 as a nominal endpoint for the union pendulum, it feels like 2020-ish may be the other one.&lt;p&gt;Honestly, I don&amp;#x27;t know if that&amp;#x27;s a good or bad thing... 40 years is a long time, considering the &amp;quot;pendulum&amp;quot; took a long time getting to 1980. I&amp;#x27;m not sure what from past experience transposes to the present and how. The world is very different.&lt;p&gt;What does an amazon union even look like? How do unions operate legally&amp;#x2F;practically in global firms? What &amp;quot;package&amp;quot; would they want to negotiate for. One union? Many unions? Structure. Strategy. Tactics. Etc.&lt;p&gt;I feel like most discussions fall into generic &amp;quot;for&amp;quot; and &amp;quot;against&amp;quot; union points. Realistically, unionisations is a wide space. Sports league unions. Newspaper Guilds. Germany&amp;#x27;s DGB. America&amp;#x27;s Teamsters. Teachers unions... all very different, and different in different eras.&lt;p&gt;What, besides achieving a union and negotiating power, would an amazon union want to be?</text><parent_chain></parent_chain></comment><story><title>Amazon Workers to Stage Coordinated Black Friday Protests in 15 Countries</title><url>https://www.vice.com/en/article/epdvzp/amazon-workers-to-stage-coordinated-black-friday-protests-in-12-countries</url></story>

Is Amazon different because its super successful right now? Or because it uses tech to make people work harder.</text><parent_chain></parent_chain></comment><story><title>Amazon Workers to Stage Coordinated Black Friday Protests in 15 Countries</title><url>https://www.vice.com/en/article/epdvzp/amazon-workers-to-stage-coordinated-black-friday-protests-in-12-countries</url></story>
