| 总结: | The automotive industry in the North American region was reconverted based on the dynamism induced by trade liberalization. Jobs moved to Mexico. This relocation of production affected American and Mexican workers; “social dumping”, as one scholar of this subject has characterized it. For this reason, by renegotiating the North American trade agreement, the forces driving these changes (Trump, at the time, the Democratic unions and politicians, and the current Mexican federal government) have concentrated a good part of their energy on imposing new rules on the automotive industry, accompanied by a labor and wage reform. It is not fortuitous that the stories of success of new independent unions are occurring mainly in this industry, and not (so much) in others. Is there a pattern or model that explains why these cases have occurred? Taking up discussions and contributions from various authors, this paper proposes a heuristic model that was tested by analyzing the relevant cases of recent independent trade unionism and some contrasting cases. These are preliminary results, since it is a living and moving phenomenon. However, clues are offered to critically monitor the implementation of the Mexican labor reform. |
