title: FIGHT AT THE PIGNONE

subject date: 2014-10-04

caption: SMO Brazing worker at work, suggestive dynamic portrait in the workshop during welding in a department of the occupied Pignone foundry in Florence. When the owners decided to fire everyone and shut down the plant, work continued in self-management for a long period, from November '53 to January '54, to remove the specter of unemployment for the 1,750 workers. The agitation garnered widespread solidarity, and the dispute ended with Eni's acquisition of the factory abandoned by Snia Viscosa.
