NARDIN, Santiago. Like pouring water into the sea: otherness and distinction in the identity construction of a movement of unemployed workers. Trab. soc. [online]. 2017, n.29, pp.537-553. ISSN 1514-6871.

In this article we analyse the identity construction in a cooperative of the “Argentina Trabaja” program, linked to a movement of unemployed workers, attending at the experience of its members, and interested in the tensions that cross its constitution. Otherness and distinction will be central notions of this work, related to two phenomena that structure the experience of marginalized fractions: the processes of collective organization and social differentiation. Both refer to dynamic construction of identity (individual and group) around which legitimate patterns of action and sociability are organized. We suggest that these are subjective forms of demarcation of border that define the criteria for membership of the cooperative and the movement, and therefore affect the configuration of the popular politicity.
