BELKIN, Alejandro. El renacer del movimiento obrero después del Centenario: el ciclo de protestas obreras de 1911-1912, sus alcances y limitaciones. Sociohistórica [online]. 2022, n.49, e161. ISSN 1852-1606.  http://dx.doi.org/https://doi.org/10.24215/18521606e161.

The cycle of worker protests that began at the beginning of the 20th century, starting with the general strike of 1902, lasted until 1910 and was violently closed by state and parastatal repression. The workers' organizations were very weakened. The recovery process was slow. However, towards May 1911 a process of growing worker unrest began, which deepened in the following months. At the beginning of 1912, the railways and the port were paralyzed. This cycle of worker protests ended in tough defeats for the workers. In this work we propose to analyze the beginnings, development and closure of this cycle of union conflict. We will pay special attention to the strategy deployed by the unions, state agencies and employers involved. In the reconstruction of these events we have used official sources, commercial newspapers and union and political newspapers of different ideological orientations.

Keywords : Anarchism; Socialism; Syndicalism; Centennial; Strikes.
