Vol. 9 No. 1 (2025): Does work still matter? Labour transformations, organisational experiences and feminist resistances in neoliberalism

In the context of the hegemony of financialised capitalism at the global level, based on the exploitation of accelerated technological development and the plundering of territories and subordinate populations, labour markets - as well as the forms, meanings and conflicts that shape the so-called ‘world of work’ today - present new features. In Argentina, the persistence of gaps and segmentations exposes the structural nature of labour inequality, in which gender is an unavoidable dimension. At the same time, flexibility, automation, individualisation and the implementation of new control mechanisms are consolidated as central features of contemporary work, and have an impact on workers' regulations, experiences, meanings, forms of organisation and collective action. From the theoretical multiplicity of feminisms, in this dossier we aspire to question, rethink and debate the transformations of labour and the forms of workers' exercise of collective power in the face of the imperative of capitalist accumulation.
