Análisis crítico de las tesis de James Brennan sobre el clasismo cordobés

Abstract

Los trabajos de James P. Brennan han sido y son material de cabecera para los análisis sobre el sindicalismo clasista de Córdoba de los años ´70. En su interpretación, este fue un fenómeno circunscripto a Córdoba y de carácter esencialmente laboral y sindical. En este artículo, sobre la base de la bibliografía específica y nuestras investigaciones, realizamos un análisis crítico de las tesis de Brennan y planteamos algunos lineamientos para una nueva interpretación que atienda a la experiencia de los trabajadores, su significado en términos culturales, políticos e ideológicos, y en cuanto a las estrategias y proyectos políticos de los trabajadores en el marco de un período de ascenso revolucionario.ABSTRACTAnalysis and critique of James Brennan´s thesis on clasismo in Cordoba.The works of James P.
