In this edition of Workers of the World journal, Carlos Salas, Jeffery David, and Luis Quintana’s paper analyses the changes undergone by the Mexican trade union movement since the 2019 revision of the labour law, accompanied by a policy of wage recovery that reversed the prolonged wage decline that had prevailed during more than thirty years of neoliberalism in Mexico. Munyaradzi Gwisai and Antonater Choto examine the severe crisis affecting Zimbabwe’s trade union movement under neoliberal globalization from 2014 to 2024, and its possibilities for transformation. Matias Muuronen looks at the political reaction to the Finnish nurses’ strikes in 2022 using the perspectives of Giorgio Agamben and Michel Foucault to analyse the state response. Alba Valéria, Andrea Oltramari, and Martín Zamora’s article discusses Brazilian trade unionism by analysing two major contributions and complementary perspectives on a path to a new trade unionism. Ankhi Mukherjee writes about the farmers’ protest in India (2020-21) and the counternarratives created by citizen journalism through social media platforms against sustained pro-state discourses by mainstream media.
