Abstract

"Everywhere, neoliberalism has created a new 'social situation'", points De la Garza (2001: 21), in this situation fixed-term contracts, job insecurity and "rise of uncertainty", increase of informal employment, the widening of unemployment, outsourcing and the spread of micro-businesses are dominant. In this problematic hearth, social answers that decompose the libretto of dominance also arise: the emergence of "recovered factories" movement is part of this history. In recovered factories, the reflection has focused on the founding (emphasis on the chronological aspects, the epic of breaking the chain of capitalist dominance, taking distance of the administrative and managerial command in labor spaces) and socio- demographic features (number, location, size of the economic units). Smaller prominence has had the study of the working process, its organization of this and the conditions in which it is carried out, and in the last step of concerns, it is the link with health issues. We highlight some points of tension in the bibliography on the topic, particularly when there is a reference to the factories and the adverse context these have faced. Without ignoring the fact of working without bosses, it is pertinent to consider that the conditions that capitalist production demands in terms of quantity and quality, times for development of the activity, productive chains, still remain; the process of production of exchange value that generates requirements for the mediate concentric circles of the productive units, continues and that, among other things that we simply enunciate, they have an impact on the self-management organization of work. The aim of this paper is to explore this discussion in the current bibliography on the topic within the Argentinean experience. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
