SOLIS, Marlene  y  AVALOS, Margarita. Building labor citizenship in the Mexican northern border. Trab. soc. [online]. 2017, n.29, pp.287-305. ISSN 1514-6871.

In this article it is of our interest to analyze the role civil society has had in the construction of labor citizenship, understanding that the principle of recoverableness of labor rights is a necessary condition for democratic life inside and out of labor spaces. Recognition of labor rights as human rights has been a long fight, so now a day, when we face a new labor reform and unstable and precarious labor markets, it is of particular relevance. In order to understand the mechanisms of intervention of civil society in the resolution of labor conflicts, as a fundamental element to advance in the construction of citizenship from a labor point of view, we analyze the Ollin Calli's discourses and practices in the resistance of workers from a transnational factory, and the forms of fight that has stimulated the Coalición Pro Justicia de las Maquiladoras along the northern border of Mexico.

Palabras clave : Labor citizenship; Civil society; Maquiladoras; Labor rights; Recoverableness; Northern border of Mexico.
