Abstract
The present paper analyzes the relationship established between sociology of labor and the unionism in Brazil. That is done by
covering three moments of that relationship. Having as a backdrop the successive political and economical conjunctures, we go
from that first generation of work sociologists to the recent period, trying to identify the most characteristic points in that trajectory .
W e work with the hypothesis according to which, along its trajectory , sociology of labor in Brazil was marked, in its origins, by the
search for affirmation and professionalism (1950/1960); later , it developed a strong political and social engagement, assuming a
public character and serving to conform to certain social identities (1970/ 1980); finally , it would have turned into a sociology for
public policies (1990/2000).
Keywords
