Resumen
WOLANSKI, Sandra. Supporting this project: An ethnographic study on union‐State relations. Trab. soc. [online]. 2018, n.30, pp.155-174. ISSN 1514-6871.
In this paper I present an analysis on union-State relations, through an ethnographic study of FOETRA, the main telecommunications union in the Metropolitan Area of Buenos Aires. Following proposals in Political Anthropology that discuss the reification of the State, I describe interactions between union activists/leaders and State representatives/agencies, and their meanings, to show the complexity of relations that could be simplified as heteronomous, or pro-government. I analyze the activists' perspective on union-State relations as a joint construction of a national project, describing its complexity in the everyday practice of union activists and in a long-term perspective that they take into account. Finally, I intend to contribute to an anthroplogical analysis of the State as a process in the making, showing the active part workers play in State construction.
