CIAVATTA, Maria. The working world in pictures: memory, history and photography. Rev. Psicol., Organ. Trab. [online]. 2012, vol.12, n.1, pp.33-45. ISSN 1984-6657.

The use of photography in research on work and education contributes to the enlargement of insight into what we call the world of work, which we think of as the free labor and the class identity of workers, vocational training, environment, living conditions, labor relations, and the struggle for emancipation. The text has the following objectives: (i) the discussion of the working world as a set of social processes; (ii) the presentation of the memories bequeathed in photographs from the first three decades of the last century (1900-1930), through the photos preserved in public and private archives of the cities of Rio de Janeiro, Sao Paulo - Campinas, and Bologna (Italy). The historical reconstruction of memory, compared in the collections studied, contributes to the understanding of the worlds of work, consisting of different memories and different views of the work and the processes experienced by workers.

Palavras-chave : work; memory; history; photography.
