Resumo: After recalling the ways in which trade unionism can be seen as an object of study (part of a social movement, institution of the labor market, interest group), this text seeks to recover some of typologies that over the past decades have guided contemporary unionism and apply to different geographical and political contexts (although the Portuguese case, and partly the Brazilian one, is privileged). These typologies – such as opposition/integration/control, negotiation/conflict or social movement unionism – are important to understand the directions (sometimes opposing, sometimes complementary) to guide the union activity. At the same time, it is argued that the present and the future of trade unionism are mainly dependent on the ability to respond to a set of very pragmatic questions: people still trust on unions? There are signs of trade unions renewal so that we can trust on unions? What are the real influences that trade unions have on society?

Tais tipologias – como as de oposição/integração/controlo, negociação/ contestação ou de sindicalismo de movimento social – são importantes para perceber os rumos (por vezes opostos, por vezes complementares) que guiam a actividade sindical. Sem prejuízo dessa ideia, argumenta-se que o presente e o futuro do sindicalismo estão sobretudo dependentes da capacidade de resposta a um conjunto de questões muito pragmáticas: as pessoas ainda confiam nos sindicatos? Há sinais de renovação sindical para que se possa confiar nos sindicatos? Que influência efectiva têm os sindicatos na sociedade?FCL-UNESP Laboratório Editorial2011-09-12info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.fclar.unesp.br/estudos/article/view/4515Estudos de Sociologia; v. 16 n. 31 (2011): Dossiê: trabalho e sindicato1982-47181414-0144reponame:Estudos de Sociologiainstname:Universidade Estadual Paulista (UNESP)instacron:UNESPporhttps://periodicos.fclar.unesp.br/estudos/article/view/4515/3964Copyright (c) 2011 Estudos de Sociologiainfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessCosta, Hermes Augusto2021-05-12T13:47:07Zoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/4515Revistahttp://seer.fclar.unesp.br/estudosPUBhttp://seer.fclar.unesp.br/estudos/oaistraud.fclar@unesp.br||estudosdesociologia@fclar.unesp.br||maria.jardim@unesp.br1982-47181414-0144opendoar:2021-05-12T13:47:07Estudos de Sociologia - Universidade Estadual Paulista (UNESP)false
