Resumo: | The present article traces the trajectory of the journal International Labor and Working-Class History (ILWCH) over the last two decades as it shifted from a journal focused almost exclusively on Europe to a more global perspective. Although interest in globalization as a phenomenon emerged in the pages of the journal in the mid-1990s, the approach adopted by Charles Tilly, in a major 1995 article in ILWCH on this question, still relected a highly Eurocentric approach to labor history. But in the following decade, the composition of the editorial board began to change, and a series of articles – several authored by the Dutch social historian Marcel van der Linden – argued for a new, genuinely global approach to labor history. Among the implications of this new Global Labor History is a rethinking of the historical category of labor or worker and the relationship of precarious and unfree labor to the history of capitalism. At the same time, historians whose work focuses on regions in the “Global South” have questioned some of the premises of Global Labor History and criticized its tendency to promote a type of “convergence narrative” that still privileges the historical experiences of capitalism in the “Global North.” |

Globalizing Labour History: the case of International Labor and Working-Class HistoryGlobalizando a História do Trabalho: o caso da revista Internacional Labor and Working-Class HistoryThe present article traces the trajectory of the journal International Labor and Working-Class History (ILWCH) over the last two decades as it shifted from a journal focused almost exclusively on Europe to a more global perspective. Although interest in globalization as a phenomenon emerged in the pages of the journal in the mid-1990s, the approach adopted by Charles Tilly, in a major 1995 article in ILWCH on this question, still relected a highly Eurocentric approach to labor history. But in the following decade, the composition of the editorial board began to change, and a series of articles – several authored by the Dutch social historian Marcel van der Linden – argued for a new, genuinely global approach to labor history. Among the implications of this new Global Labor History is a rethinking of the historical category of labor or worker and the relationship of precarious and unfree labor to the history of capitalism. At the same time, historians whose work focuses on regions in the “Global South” have questioned some of the premises of Global Labor History and criticized its tendency to promote a type of “convergence narrative” that still privileges the historical experiences of capitalism in the “Global North.”O presente artigo segue a trajetória da revista International Labor and Working-Class History (ILWCH) ao longo das últimas duas décadas, delineando sua transição de uma revista com um enfoque quase exclusivamente na história da Europa para uma publicação com uma perspectiva mais global. Embora houvesse nas páginas da ILWCH um interesse na globalização como fenômeno começando nos anos 1990, um importante artigo sobre este tema escrito por Charles Tilly em 1995 ainda refletia uma abordagem altamente eurocêntrica. Mas na década seguinte, a composição da comissão editorial começou a mudar, e uma série de artigos – vários deles autorizados pelo historiador social holandês Marcel van der Linden – foram publicados na revista montando argumentos em favor de uma nova e verdadeiramente globalizada história do trabalho. Entre as implicações dessa nova Global Labor History vem a necessidade de repensar a categoria histórica de trabalho e de trabalhador/a e a relação entre o trabalho precário ou não livre à história do capitalismo. Ao mesmo tempo, outros historiadores, geralmente trabalhando nas regiões do “Sul Global”, têm questionado os pressupostos da Global Labor History, especialmente a tendência de fazer avançar um tipo de “narrativa de convergência” que continua privilegiando as experiências históricas do capitalismo nos países do “Norte Global”.Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina (UFSC)2018-11-23info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/mundosdotrabalho/article/view/1984-9222.2017v9n18p1110.5007/1984-9222.2017v9n18p11Revista Mundos do Trabalho; Vol. 9 No. 18 (2017): Cidadania, política e história do trabalho; 11-23Revista Mundos do Trabalho; Vol. 9 Núm. 18 (2017): Cidadania, política e história do trabalho; 11-23Revista Mundos do Trabalho; v. 9 n. 18 (2017): Cidadania, política e história do trabalho; 11-231984-9222reponame:Revista Mundos do Trabalhoinstname:Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina (UFSC)instacron:UFSCporhttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/mundosdotrabalho/article/view/1984-9222.2017v9n18p11/37883Copyright (c) 2018 Revista Mundos do Trabalhoinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessWeinstein, Barbara2023-05-18T02:30:57Zoai:periodicos.ufsc.br:article/60297Revistahttp://www.periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/mundosdotrabalhoPUBhttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/mundosdotrabalho/oai||revistamundosdotrabalho@gmail.com|| portaldeperiodicos.bu@contato.ufsc.br1984-92221984-9222opendoar:2023-05-18T02:30:57Revista Mundos do Trabalho - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina (UFSC)false |
