The current text analyses the urgent need for change and democratization of the Brazilian model of collective bargaining in the industries and labor relations, in the face of crises, transformations deunionizing of labor laws and the maintenance of the union corporativism model current in Brazil as well as some proposals for reform of the system put forward in recent years and the alterations they intended to make especially in relation to unionization freedom. It stresses the fact that the only consensus reached is that it no longer fullfils its orinal purpose and that it necessarily needs some rethinking. It also considers that central to the arguments on the renewal of the Brazilian model of unionism and system of negotiations an attempt is made to introduce a new concept of syndicalism committed to the idea of solidarity, social emancipation and participative democracy.
