Abstract

The present paper explores the extent of internal democracy and grassroots participation within the Congress of South Africa Unions, focusing specifically on questions of shopfloor organisation and the office of shopsteward, and is based on a nationwide survey of members of the Congress of South African Trade Unions (COSATU). The survey revealed remarkably high levels of participation within union internal structures, and deeply embedded notions of accountability and recall.
