Resumen
VEJAR, Dasten Julián y HERNANDEZ ARACENA, Javier. Structural heterogeneity and labor precarity: Taking into account the working poor. Trab. soc. [online]. 2017, n.29, pp.265-286. ISSN 1514-6871.
Precariousness became a central concept when looking at economic relations in Chile and other Latin American countries. This is directly related to the introduction of neoliberalism and labor deregulation. In this paper we propose that precariousness and its role during the processes of economic value creation challenge categories such as “structural heterogeneity” as proposed by ECLAC. We use secondary sources to portray the reality of the so-called "working poor" in Chile, who are increasing their quantitative presence asa result of a general trend towards labor and social precarization. We think that our analysis complements, critically, the categories employed by ECLAC to understand Chilean social structure.
