Abstract
OYHANTCABAL BENELLI, Gabriel. ¿De asalariados rurales a...? Acceso a la tierra en el norte uruguayo. Mundo agrar. [online]. 2018, vol.19, n.40, pp.76.e1-76.e2. ISSN 1515-5994. http://dx.doi.org/https://doi.org/10.24215/15155994e076.
From 2006 the sugar-ethanol project in Bella Unión, Uruguay, produced different land access experiences by unionised rural wage workers. This article analyses the case of the workers from the “Unión de Trabajadores Azucareros de Artigas” in the Colonia Sendic focused on the changes in the subsumption of labour under capital. The results show that the settlers constitute a hybrid class, which intermediates between labour force and capital, as a result of the impossibility to recreate the petty commodity producer by the specific form of capital valorization in the sugar-ethanol complex.
