Against this uncertainty people are looking
for security, and while institutions like
unions may have been out of fashion in
the decade of Hedonism, they now have
the history and values to draw people
back.
The union creed of working together,
not against each other; embracing not
fearing difference; and standing up to
the power of the corporate are the sort
of values that do give hope and meaning
to people struggling to make sense of
the madness in the world.
It is a story that does not just address
the excesses of capital, but also the
small-mindedness of Terror.

The challenge for 2003 of course, is
to tell this story and give every worker
the chance to control their life; take
a stand, be a hero.
