Abstract

GHIGLIANI, Pablo. Women workers in the printing industry during sixties and seventies: union participation, contentious agency and genre discourses. Trab. soc. [online]. 2018, n.31, pp.149-166. ISSN 1514-6871.

The paper is based upon the following proposition: the relations of economic exploitation are simultaneously complex and changing relations of domination and subordination, among and within classes. With this paradigm as intellectual horizon, the paper studies the growing mobilization process of female workers of the printing industry between 1966 and 1976. It is organized in three parts: a) a quantitative study of the evolution of the presence of women in the headquarters of the la Federación Gráfica Bonaerense, the competing electoral lists and the shop-floor committees between 1966 y 1975; b) the quantitative and qualitative study of the women agency in the labor conflicts of the period; and c) a qualitative analysis of how the female is discursively treated by the trade-union magazine.

Keywords : Federación Gráfica Bonaerense; printing industry; working class; trade-unionism; gender.
