Mission

The purpose of LPI is to investigate and evaluate the conditions, relationships, and dynamics of our society based on understanding the value of labor and the ownership of the means of production. We hope to positively impact labor and social movements through education and organizing. We will host meetings and workshops, as well as present papers and proposals, at conferences and forums, to impact public opinion on important issues and matters of the day.
