In Buenos Aires, thirty unemployed auto-parts workers occupy their idle factory, refusing to leave until the machines are restarted. This simple act has global implications, challenging the debate on globalization.

The Take
Argentina's 2001 economic crisis sparks a revolutionary movement as factory workers occupy abandoned facilities, restarting production and establishing a pioneering cooperative ownership model that inspires hope for economic rebirth.
