At the ‘Our Power’ conference, the first volume in the ‘Our Power’ series, *Lives Without Wages*, will be launched.

As the global crisis becomes permanent, as the wheels of capital spin ever faster in the pursuit of profit, and as the labour movement grows ever weaker, one truth becomes clearer: the proletarian is defined by her complete lack of reserves – not by any work she may do.

The Marxist collective Kämpa tillsammans! grapples in a number of texts with the proletarian condition, its history, and the proletariat’s constant struggle to overcome it.
