This work analyzes political articulations among social movements subjects from the 1980s. It takes them as something constituted through contact and support networks these subjects created in social movements and political struggle institutions and entities linked to the working class i.e., fighting trade unions, neighborhood associations, left-wing parties, central workers organization/CUT, informational and assessorial centrals, documentation and memorial centers as well as small Christian communities/CEBs and its parishes. These networks grew strong by sharing a social and political project aimed at changing socials relations to build a society able to ensure freedom and better life conditions for workers. Such an analysis is based on material from CPD collection kept by the historical documentation and research center at Universidade Federal de Uberlândia as well as on interviews with militants from both trade union and popular movements in Uberlandia, state of Minas Gerais. Stemmed from an experience aimed at collecting and organizing materials from those articulations, CPD is a center of popular documenting created during the 1980s to make up a heap that could be useful to the workers history. Focusing on the experience of these social movements has meant to take, and deal with, memory as a domain of active struggle as well, since the making of these struggles memory resulted in the articulation of many similar networks in an ample crusade. The fact that such documentation centers appeared in the whole country proves it. In the light of class union and solidarity, this crusade formed an intense communication process to mobilize and organize workers for their everyday life struggles. Newsletters, periodicals, pamphlets, and leaflets provided them with information and political training, besides indicating the strength of trade union and popular printed materials as an alternative to the hegemonic communication means.
