French port strikes: Unions 'will get better working conditions', but can they curb militarisation? Carys Garland is pleased to welcome Renaud Foucart, Senior Lecturer at the Department of Economics ECARES at Lancaster University. An international dockworkers’ strike brings into focus the relationship between organized labor, technological change and Europe’s expanding military investment.
Foucart argues that port workers’ strategic position in global supply chains gives them exceptional leverage: “They know how powerful they are.” While questioning their ability to redirect military policy, he expects that leverage to secure concessions on automation and working conditions: “They can get those concessions. And I think they will get them.” War in Ukraine: Evacuations under way in Russian-occupied Oleshky French crowd gathers for anti-islamophobia rally in Paris suburb after attack Spain working to identify train crash dead as relatives' anguish grows Black Sea shipping under growing threats as drones hit container ships Spanish transport minister faces calls to quit after deadly train crash Third weekend of protests looms as tensions persist across France Who is Kevin T., the main suspect behind the racist Trappes attack?
