Project:
Solidarity & Democratic Movements
1. Recount the role Solidarity played in establishing
Polish Democracy.
2. Discuss how unions & the Labor Movement are
or are not well suited for this type of role / function, i.e. what features
or characteristics does the Labor Movement have that make it well suited
to oppose totalitarianism & support democracy?
3. What historic roles have other unions played?
4. Should the US Labor Movement actively support
such democratic movements around the world? Why or why not?
