30. junija ob 19.30 bo italijanski raziskovalec in politični aktivist Lorenzo Feltrin v prostorih Participativne ljubljanske avtonomne cone (PLAC) predstavil svojo najnovejšo knjigo “Delavci in svet: boj proti ekološki krizi od znotraj”.
Knjiga temelji na empirični raziskavi štirih primerov: dveh na globalnem jugu – črpanju zemeljskega plina v Tuniziji in predelavi bakra v Čilu – in dveh na globalnem severu – petrokemični industriji v Veliki Britaniji in Italiji. Prek teh primerov skuša avtor pokazati, kako normalno delovanje obstoječega sistema hkrati poglablja socialno in ekološko krizo – obenem povečuje gospodarske outpute in zaposlitveno prekarnost, podžiga imperializem in vojne ter spodjeda družbeno reprodukcijo.
Prek obravnave preteklih in sedanjih navezav med delavskim in okoljskim bojem – od boja delavcev v italijanski petrokemični industriji proti škodljivim vplivom njihovega dela v času t.i. “vroče jeseni” 1968, do še vedno aktualnih prizadevanj za pravičen prehod nekdanjih delavcev tovarne GKN v Firencah – knjiga raziskuje možnosti za povezavo med organiziranjem na delovnem mestu in mobilizacijami v širši skupnosti, ki bi lahko ponudila alternativo dilemi “zdravo okolje ali delovna mesta”.
Lorenzo Feltrin je aktiven v socialnem centru Django v Trevisu in je zaposlen kot raziskovalec na Univerzi Ca’ Foscari v Benetkah. Ukvarja se s področjem delovne in politične ekologije, trenutno prek projekta o preteklih in sedanjih vrednostnih verigah gnojil.
Predstavitev knjige bo potekala v angleščini. Pred predstavitvijo knjige bo Lorenzo na kratko predstavil socialni center Django, aktivisti PLAC-a pa delovanje ljubljanskega avtonomnega prostora.
Dogodek soorganiziramo Mreža za pravičen prehod, Razredni broj in Inštitut za delavske študije.

On June 30 at 19.30, Italian researcher and political activist Lorenzo Feltrin will present his latest book, “Workers and the World: Fighting the Ecological Crisis from Within”, at the Participatory Ljubljana Autonomous Zone (PLAC).
The book draws on empirical research from four case studies: two in the Global South – gas extraction in Tunisia and copper processing in Chile – and two in the Global North – petrochemical production in the UK and Italy. Through these case studies, the book examines four topics in relation to the ecological crisis: automation and deindustrialisation, employment precarity, imperialism and war, and social reproduction.
By examining past and present connections between the labor and environmental struggles — from the struggle of workers in the Italian petrochemical industry against noxiousness during Italy’s “Hot Autumn” of 1968, to the still-ongoing efforts for a just transition by former workers at the GKN factory in Florence — the book explores possibilities for linking workplace organizing with mobilizations in the broader community as an alternative to the jobs versus environment dilemma.
Lorenzo Feltrin is part of Treviso’s Django Social Centre and works as a researcher at Ca’ Foscari University of Venice. His interests are in the areas of labour and political ecology, currently with a project on past and present fertiliser value chains.
The presentation will be held in English. Before the talk, there will also be brief presentations of Django Social Centre by Lorenzo and of PLAC by its activists.
The event is co-organised by Network for Just Transition, Class Issue, and Institute for Labour Studies.
