Capital accumulation, crisis, and labor market in modern Brazil Gustavo Mello Henrique Braga Mauricio de Souza Sabadini 10.6084/m9.figshare.8127698.v1 https://scielo.figshare.com/articles/dataset/Capital_accumulation_crisis_and_labor_market_in_modern_Brazil/8127698 <div><p>Abstract This article presents the recent changes in the Brazilian labor market, resulting from the recessionary dynamics of the world capitalist economy of the last decades manifested since the 2007-2008 crisis. It observes the insertion of Brazil in the global capitalist economy and the foundations supporting the processes of reproduction of capital, analyzing some indicators of the labor market related to the labor-power employment, wage, rates of formalization and turnover, in light of central tendencies and determinations of today’s process of expanded reproduction of capital. The study contributes to clarify phenomena such as the tendency to identify formal and informal work, the reconstitution of the industrial reserve army, wage repression and intensification of labor, which are promoted by the ongoing “reforms” in Brazil.</p></div> 2019-05-15 02:42:52 Capital accumulation Economic crisis Brazilian labor market
