ABSTRACT:
Drawing on ethnographic case study material from one kibbutz and secondary material on the movement generally, this article explores the organization and control of the labor process of the communal socialist Israeli kibbutz. While not oblivious to the problems of the kibbutz movement, the research indicates that workers do determine the organization and control of its industrial labor process. These findings are discussed in the context of labor process analysis, which has neglected the kibbutz. By inviting a comparison between the kibbutz and the labor processes of capitalism and state socialism, this study offers an opportunity for a theoretical reevaluation of socialism and a broadening of appreciation for the empirical possibilities in the organization and control of the labor process generally.
