Abstract

FULLADOSA-LEAL, Karina. Approach to the processes of subjectivation of domestic and care workers unionized. Summa psicol. UST (En línea) [online]. 2013, vol.10, n.1, pp. 23-35. ISSN 0718-0446.

In studies of the work for social reproduction has been emphasized its character of "invisible work". However, domestic and care workers employed in Catalonia have decided to form a union to promote their visibility and defend their rights. In this article I propose an approach to the construction of subjectivity of migrant household workers unionized, through four narratives held in the city of Barcelona. Through the co-production of these texts I discuss on the assessment and meanings of domestic work, the participation of activists in the union and possible changes that may involve being organized. Thus, is established a situated understanding of trajectories and subjective processes of domestic and care workers, articulated in collective action as is the union
