The book’s starting point is A Shot in the Factory, a 1973 Finnish film. Directed by Erkko Kivikoski, the film is a fictional tale of violent class conflict. The volume expands the scope of the labour struggles represented in the film by discussing a seminal 1971 reportage by writer Marja-Leena Mikkola on women industrial workers, and placing both within the wider context of Finnish labour history. Edited and written by Sezgin Boynik and Minna Henriksson, the book challenges some of the myths surrounding the welfare state by introducing the idea of the ‘factory as subjectivity’.
Includes a poem by Maria Fusco.
