Abstract
This thesis aims to understand the practices of work organization that are structured worker cooperatives shaped recovery process companies in the metropolitan area of Buenos Aires. The question is what orients the practices and values that characterize the recovery experiences of factories and enterprises in the Metropolitan Area of Buenos Aires in the period 1999-2009. Our working hypothesis is that the productive practices developed in this period are based on the criteria of mutual solidarity, self-managed organization and cooperation extended to shape a specific and characteristic way associativity for work that allows not only organize the day to day production, but also to place the various experiences as expressions in the same process. The investigation leading to this thesis was a qualitative study from the interpretive paradigm on 33 worker cooperatives belonging to MNFR and located in Buenos Aires´s Metropolitan Area. For this I conducted a survey with closed questions that allowed me to establish the main features production partner of my research´s units of analysis. In turn I conducted interviews to people linked to worker cooperatives studied, some of which were updated throughout the period analyzed. While this study follows the lines of the grounded theory selecting interviewees was done on the basis of theoretical sampling technique. We chose to interview people who occupy different roles in the organizations studied and had built at different times to these processes, with varied conditions of gender and age and various political experiences and labor. The analytical course of this thesis is divided into four chapters and final conclusions. In the first chapter I toured the academic perspectives on the construction of meanings of the problem of recoveries in the period analyzed by identifying two major criteria of justification. First, the perspective of those who studied the recovery process as a new field, bursting with political apathy of the popular sectors, whether we interpret as a redefinition of ancient codes of labor struggle or understood it as a sui generis mode challenge to neoliberalism. Second, those perspectives based on theoretical developments in the social economy, created sense of the importance of the development of values such as solidarity and non-commercial ways of conceiving work as essential for strengthening associative experiences. In the second chapter I advance in understanding work situations in the recovered factories. Here I pause in production practices, decision-making processes regarding the use of resources for production and management of continuity of production units. In the third chapter I stop at conceptualizing the new way of being worker is configured in the daily management of these associative experiences. Ie I go in analyzing the ways in which they are positioned relative to their peers and to work from understanding that the formation of the cooperative meant a change for workers in subjective terms and organizational. In the fourth chapter I defined the point of crystallization of this specific form of association as a community defined value, ie the reciprocal solidarity, self-managed organization and widespread cooperation. Combinatorial justification of these parameters are expressed in shaping productive consensus, quotas and more or less stable in the experience, which characterized in terms of how they express the tension between social and technical division of labor in different cooperatives surveyed.
