[Marxism] workers' and neighborhood democracy in Venezuela

["acpollack2@xxxxxxxx" <acpollack2@xxxxxxxx>]

Two articles from venezuelanalysis:
*Chavez' speech to the First Meeting of Latin American Worker Occupied 
Factories, in which he encourages a continentwide organization uniting 
these workers, and points out with pride that in Venezuela the 
government just legalized actions already taken by workers.

* A report, originally in Green Left Weekly, on the establishment of 
community councils in Venezuela, with structures and a process 
specifically designed to overcome the usurpation by established 
parties of previous bodies set up to deal in an unintegrated way with 
healthcare, education, etc. Note the role of women in the councils.
