| Abstract | |
From the analyses of the strike undertaken in 1980 by the metalworkers of ABC Paulista, this research aims to investigate the social networks that have been made by the metalworkers who lived in São Bernardo do Campo. This research has also the purpose of verifying the relationship of the worker s social networks with the collective mobilization, which in the juncture of the Abertura, sustained, between April 1 and May 11, one of the most important strike movements of the Brazilian laborers. Such focus has revealed to us that the intense and durable laborers´ engagement on the strike in 1980 stemmed, in a way, from the interaction between formal and informal connections in a context of the crisis of the in vigor military regime, in other words, the articulation among forceful action of the organizations specially of the Metalworkers Union of São Bernardo do Campo and Diadema as well as the dense relationship extant among the workers of São Bernardo. Thus, we have been leaded to consider the organization of the dense networks as part of the class formation which has leaded us to emphasize the workers action on the process of industrialization, migration and urbanization which was intensified from the 50´s in São Bernardo do Campo. In this manner, we could testify that if the factories were an important ambit of common experience for the workers of São Bernardo, such common experience would also include socio-cultural practices started in other loci of the urban space, mainly in neighborhoods where the workers lived.
