WORK 7 - Merchants of the Rock
Manage episode 415686967 series 3315152
The cod collapse is a harbinger of the many environmental disasters we’re about to face. But what happens to workers in the aftermath of that kind of catastrophe? In Newfoundland and Labrador, monopolistic corporations took advantage.
The history of the Atlantic fishery can be understood as a power struggle between fishermen and merchants.
And the merchants are winning.
