Autor Davide Carbonai
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 7 feb 2022
This Palgrave Pivot provides an overview of rural labour relations in different regions of the State of Rio Grande do Sul, in southern Brazil. Based on rich ethnographic research, through interviews with a long list of rural workers and union members, among others, the study highlights the toughness faced by salaried workers, who deal with difficulties in union representation and, above all, suffer different types of exploitation. Using a systemic approach, this book connects rural workers, union representation, and labour regulation to examine where society has failed and what can be done to protect rural workers.

Textul de pe ultima copertă

“Davide Carbonai’s book is a major sociological study addressing the diversity of rural wage workers in the southernmost state of Brazil, Rio Grande do Sul. Through in-depth interviews, together with consistent quantitative data, trade unions’ documents and insightful analyses, the author paints a unique picture of those who are impoverished workers, their everyday life, their working relationships, as well as their fears and hopes for the future. This is an indispensable book for anyone who wants to know more about rural workers in Brazil, especially in the South”
Ondina Fachel Leal Professor at the Federal University of Rio Grande do Sul (UFRGS), and author of The Gauchos: Culture and Identity in the Pampas (Tomo Editorial 2021)
