MAGLIANO, María José; PERISSINOTTI, María Victoria  e  ZENKLUSEN, Denise. Struggles of Migration in Labor Contexts: The Experience of Union Activism of a Peruvian Domestic Work in Córdoba, Argentina. Trab. soc. [online]. 2017, n.28, pp.309-326. ISSN 1514-6871.

This paper sets out to reconstruct the unionization experience of a Peruvian domestic worker in Córdoba (Argentina), looking into the processes of subjectivity and resistance through which she becomes a political subject that activates the right to claim for rights. Assuming the challenge of capturing the specificity of contemporary global migrations, this paper analyzes- from a qualitatively methodological strategy- a life story, in order to understand those migration’ struggles whose claims do not refer to migration status and their legal aspect, but to work and labors rights. Therefore, it mainly incorporates two theoretical perspectives: autonomy of migration and intersectional perspective. Our premise starts from conceiving that the process we explore in this paper -understood as a "struggle" and related to a key aspect of migrant subjectivity as work is- is principally determined by the intersection of gender, social class and age within a life course.
