Abstract
Recovered factories –emerged in Argentina in the context of 2001 crisis- are those companies/factories that workers decide to occupy when its owners abandon them, produce patrimonial emptying, or bankruptcy, with the aim of maintaining their jobs and take control of the productive process in a cooperatively and self-management way. From the moment workers have overcome the recovery process and legal difficulties; they found themselves in a phase of productive consolidation: they go through a period of wroth not only in an economical-productive field, but also in a political, legal and social sense; they have accumulated symbolic capital that gives them the authority to assist other workers that pretend to emulate their experiences and, at the same time, they have some social recognition and prestige. Here it begins a phase that we call consolidation and it becomes necessary to re think how they reconfigured internally. Thus, the aim of this thesis is to analyze how recovered factories configure themselves in
a consolidation phase. To pursue this objective we constructed three interrelated analytical dimensions: enterprise, work organization and labor identity. To analyze recovered factories as enterprises, we examine the elements of traditional companies and those from self-management companies to understand recovered factories from the juxtaposition of them. Regarding the second dimension, we problematize how work organization operates in recovered factories, identifying the technical and control / hierarchy elements in order to then analyze the importance of the elements of home business`s work organization –technical, social and sexual wok divisionin the recovered factory. At last, regarding the third dimension, we inquire into the career paths of workers –that have been socialize in a salary relation- to observe conditions that have structured their labor identity and reflect on the process of construction of labor identities of the workers in the recovered factories. The present research has been executed through the study of two cases with a qualitative methodological approach. They have been selected based on their explanatory capability. The selected cases are two recovered factories located in the Gran Rosario area (Santa Fe-Argentina): a glass company and a dairy company. Our research allow us to sustain that recovered factories are configured as a hybrid since they have transformed the capital-work relation of the previous company, creating cooperative and associative, but are still dependents of the capitalist market. This hybrid condition that penetrates the structures of the recovered factories, their work organization and labor identity, configures them with an inherent contradiction, producing important tensions and internal unrest.
