Publisher Description

Abstract. The social impact of the movement of occupied enterprises is more closely related to its symbolic dimension than to its real strength, since it only involves about a hundred companies and fewer than 8,000 workers. Nonetheless, in providing an innovative alternative to address the unprecedented levels of poverty and unemployment in Argentina, the experience of occupied enterprises has also opened up new expectations for change among the broader population. In particular, the reactivation of production under the control of workers creates the possibility of redefining capital-labour relations and questioning the unconditional supremacy of property rights. Resume. L'ampleur et l'impact social du mouvement des travailleurs " d'entreprises recuperees " en Argentine, dependent davantage de ses dimensions symboliques que de sa magnitude reelle--soit la participation d'une centaine d'entreprises et un peu moins de huit mille travailleurs. Le mouvement propose une solution originale pour contrer le niveau de pauvrete jamais vu auparavant et de chomage qui affligent l'Argentine tout en ayant une incidence considerable sur les attentes sociales. Cette solution redefinie les relations capital/ travail dans les entreprises recuperees et remet en question le caractere absolu du droit a la propriete privee. Ce changement ne se limite pas a la sphere culturelle mais affecte directement le systeme institutionnel des relations de travail en procurant aux travailleurs un nouvel outil de pression et de negociation tout en affaiblissant la capacite du patronat de discipliner les travailleurs.
