Property and Contract in Economics: The Case for Economic Democracy by David Elleman
This book argues against the employer-employee relationship and in favor of an inalienable right to workplace democracy i.e. all firms should be worker #coops.
Rereading the book always improves my understanding of nuances of the arguments presented, and each time I come away with an even greater appreciation of the ideas presented.

@jlou @bookstodon Thank you for the comment. At some point I will try to get around to having a look at the #book; currently my #tbr list is rather long.
@bibliolater @bookstodon Here is a much shorter article by the same author that introduces the argument presented in the book, so you can see if the book would be of interest to you: https://www.ellerman.org/inalienable-rights-part-i-the-basic-argument/
