Abstract

Our proposal aims to demonstrate the transformation of the labor movement, its struggles in the decades preceding the rise of Peronism, and how its relationship with the State and employers was transfigured by changes in the class struggle and work processes. To present our hypothesis, we will focus on dockworkers. This group was chosen because it represents the quantitative core of the labor movement in the province of Entre Ríos, the area chosen for our study. Furthermore, dockworkers were responsible for the majority of conflicts in the first half of the twentieth century.
