MULERAS, Edna. ¿Meritocracia o Equidad? Concepciones de justicia social en fracciones trabajadoras de Argentina del siglo veintiuno. Sociohistórica [online]. 2019, n.43, pp.76-76. ISSN 1852-1606. http://dx.doi.org/https://doi.org/18521606e076.
Is social equity still a substantive value for working class in our contemporary societies? Is social inequality observed by those who suffer its consequences? Which is the conception of social justice that prevails when evaluating their own situation? A meritocratic conception according to which the situation is exclusively attributed to individual responsibility? Or a distributive conception that presents personal situation as restricted by unequal conditions, rights and development possibilities among social classes? Diverse conceptions of social justice were empirically surveyed in an exploratory and comparative research on working class moral identity, in Argentina in the last years (2010-2015). The study offers valuable clues to make newhypothesis about some of the cultural preconditions of the electoral success of the new neoliberal governments in the region, even though they drive structural changes which affect the extension of rights previously achieved by working class.
