Atzeni and Ghigliani 2007

Atzeni and Ghigliani “The Resilience of Traditional Trade Union PRactices in the Revitalisation of the Argentine Labour Movement”
in Phelan, Craig. 2007. Trade union revitalisation: trends and prospects in 34 countries. Oxford: Peter Lang.

  • Unions regaining strength in Argentina (data on density, conflicts, CB growth, reunification of CGT)
  • in Argentina, trade union return to prominence seems to be associated with traditional (peronist, populist) practices
    • CGT ignoring informal, unemployed workers
  • New things
    • more shopfloor, enterprise-based action
  • TRADITIONS TRUMP NEW
