Abstract:
The objective of this research is to examine the reasons why the labour masses appear so weak today to confront the complexities that derive from the production processes, syndicalism and from labor training as well. This weakness is maintained under the effect of the radical changes that are recorded in technology at the age of computer information and globalization. Within the framework of the shaping new work environment the raising question is if the education is capable not only to follow but to be adjusted in the conditions of those developments. With the undergoing restructuring in the traditional workplace it is challenging a multilateral and astonishing devitalization of the traditional form of labor organization. Consequently, the attention is focused at the study, which would elevate the significance of the new form of struggle, the organization and function of syndicalism in the newly shaped work relations globally by analyzing, in parallel, the possibilities of syndicalism in the subjects of education.
