Trabalhadores no tribunal
O livro, originalmente uma tese de livre-docência na Unicamp, defende uma tese no sentido forte: a de que a maior parte da literatura precedente nas ciências sociais e na história sobre os trabalhadores brasileiros ignora ou menospreza a presença da Justiça do Trabalho na configuração dos conflitos sociais no Brasil por achar que a sua judicialização eliminaria a negociação direta com os empregadores reduzindo as possibilidades de concepções coletivas de classe. O pressuposto seria que o caso anglo-saxônico de "voluntarismo" e "liberalismo" nas relações de trabalho teria sido mais favorável à mobilização dos trabalhadores e à formação de sindicatos autênticos. E que o...

Descreve com clareza sua ligação com a cidade e os problemas relacionados à jornada de trabalho e à remuneração.

Workers Before the Court
Law and justice are studied in this book from the perspective of social and global history. The main focus of Workers Before the Tribunal is to overcome traditional binary oppositions between corporativist and contratualist models of labor relations, the former representing a view in which the working class would have more autonomy in struggling for better labor conditions, the latter meaning the protagonism of the State in promoting labor rights. Teixeira da Silva presents three main arguments. First, he shows that the Brazilian labor justice system created during the Getúlio Vargas dictatorship (1930-1945), although inspired by Mussolini's legal order in Italy, is very different from the ...

Drowning in Laws
Since 1943, the lives of Brazilian working people and their employers have been governed by the Consolidation of Labor Laws (CLT). Seen as the end of an exclusively repressive approach, the CLT was long hailed as one of the world's most advanced bodies of social legislation. In Drowning in Laws, John D. French examines the juridical origins of the CLT and the role it played in the cultural and political formation of the Brazilian working class. Focusing on the relatively open political era known as the Populist Republic of 1945 to 1964, French illustrates the glaring contrast between the generosity of the CLT's legal promises and the meager justice meted out in workplaces, government ministries, and labor courts. He argues that the law, from the outset, was more an ideal than a set of enforceable regulations--there was no intention on the part of leaders and bureaucrats to actually practice what was promised, yet workers seized on the CLT's utopian premises while attacking its systemic flaws. In the end, French says, the labor laws became "real" in the workplace only to the extent that workers struggled to turn the imaginary ideal into reality.
Company Towns in the Americas
Company towns were the spatial manifestation of a social ideology and an economic rationale. The contributors to this volume show how national politics, social protest, and local culture transformed those founding ideologies by examining the histories of company towns in six countries: Argentina (Firmat), Brazil (Volta Redonda, Santos, Fordlândia), Canada (Sudbury), Chile (El Salvador), Mexico (Santa Rosa, Río Blanco), and the United States (Anaconda, Kellogg, and Sunflower City). Company towns across the Americas played similar economic and social roles. They advanced the frontiers of industrial capitalism and became powerful symbols of modernity. They expanded national economies by suppo...
Militares, Poder e Sociedade
A História Militar vem surgindo, nos últimos anos, revigorada com novos olhares e perspectivas. A velha visão de uma história-batalha enaltecedora de heróis simplesmente desapareceu. Historiadores consagrados no Brasil como Francisco Carlos Teixeira da Silva, Luiz Carlos Soares, Ronaldo Vainfas e Francisco Doratioto têm discutido a Nova História Militar com diferentes percepções e abordagens. Seguindo-se a essa geração de notáveis docentes surgiu nos últimos anos um grupo de jovens acadêmicos que, caminhando nos passos de seus mestres, vêm publicando trabalhos de excelente qualidade, dentre esses se destaca o Prof. Dr. Fernando da Silva Rodrigues, da Universidade Salgado de Ol...
The Internationalisation of the Labour Question
This edited collection is a global history of workers’ organisations since 1919, the year when the International Labour Organisation (ILO), the Comintern and the International Federation of Trade Unions were formed. This historical moment represents a caesura in labour history as it epitomises the beginning of what the editors and the contributors in this book call the internationalisation of the labour question. The case studies in this centenary volume analyse the relationship between global workers’ organisations and the new ideological confrontation between liberal capitalism, socialism and communism since the Bolshevik Revolution in Russia. Workers’ organisations, trade unions in ...
