REBON, Julián; KASPARIAN, Denise e HERNANDEZ, Candela. The moral economy of work: The social legitimacy of enterprises recuperated by their workers. Trab. soc. [online]. 2015, n.25, pp.173-194. ISSN 1514-6871.
The recuperation of enterprises by their workers in Argentina represents a process that despite its disruptive and innovative features has gained a wide social legitimacy. Which are the logics that underlie such legitimacy? To what degree this positive assessment extends to all the attributes of the process, even the most disruptive? How do operating logics interact with the hegemonic values on which stands the capitalist society? Through survey research, we measure the social assessment of the recuperation of enterprises process in its different dimensions and we inquire the cultural configuration that allows its understanding. Revisiting the theoretical developments around the concept of moral economy, we argue that the legitimacy the process gains is based on the assessment of labor as a form of social, material and symbolic reproduction in Argentinean society. This cultural configuration around labor allows the discrimination between right and wrong, promoting collective action and a tolerance to it; thereby presenting, limits to the commodification of labor.
