What do you mean by "self-managed unions"?

We mean unions run by and for workers themselves — the self-organization of the working class in a new kind of militant labor movement. When we talk about building unions, we don't mean unions like the national unions of the AFL-CIO which are run by bureaucrats. Even in cases where their leaders are sincere, the top-down structure of those kinds of unions leaves the members out of key decision-making and, at best, defends the lousy deal workers already have.
