In this article we analyze the composition of the labor force in Europe and its changes, focusing on the relationship between precariousness, unemployment and social security since the crisis of 1970 until today, with particular attention to the changes that took place since the crisis of 1970, including the crisis of 1981-1984 and the crisis of 2008. We focus on the composition of the internal and external labor force (migrations) and on the short and medium-term effects of focused social programs and their impact on the restructuring of the labor force, which questioned the social pact raised in Northern and Central Europe in the post war period and in Southern Europe after the Portuguese revolution and the Spanish transition in the 1970s. The sources of this work are quantitative (statistics from the European Commission, analysis of corporate annual reports, Eurostat and INE) and qualitative (a study of the changes in union policies, interviews and others).
