The Labor Law and Labor Process Group, linked to the Faculty of Law of the Brazilian Institute of Education, Development and Research (IDP), has as its central objective to undertake studies and develop research aimed at understanding the dilemmas of the world of work, considering, in particular, the challenge for sustainable economic and social development, which involves the primacy of decent work. The themes permeate both Material Law, individual and Collective, and Procedural Law, considering the intersectionality between the themes. Seeking to develop an epistemological review of the labor legal field, the debates consider the plurality of ideas and the interdisciplinary character, incorporating studies of both legal dogmatics, Sociology of Work, Legal Anthropology, History of Law and Philosophy of Law. Specifically in the legal sphere, the perspective of Constitutional Labor Law is adopted as a theoretical axis. The proposal for critical reflection, aimed at qualifying academic and social debate, encompasses teachers and students, both undergraduate and postgraduate. Meetings are fortnightly.
Final report of the extension project
Preliminary project proposal
The Group proposes to study, analyze and understand work as an important historical phenomenon for the law and the Constitution, in order to examine the different ideas and the different social and institutional movements that led and lead to the formation of Labor Law and its relationship with the constitutional text. The purpose is to adopt an interdisciplinary approach, using, among other disciplines, the Sociology of Work, Legal Anthropology, History of Law and Philosophy of Law, to promote the investigation and study of bases, premises and concepts for development of a theory of Constitutional Labor Law. Based on this proposal, the Group focuses, among others, on the following research themes: scenario of flexibilization of labor legislation, deregulation and structural precariousness; collective negotiating autonomy, collective law and its interconnection with individual law; theoretical premises of Labor Law; uberization of labor relations, “gig economy”, work via digital platforms; work and gender; effectiveness of labor legislation and challenges to supervisory action; the actions of the Labor Court; ways of resolving disputes; child labor; domestic work; slave labor.
