CASTRO GUIZA, Omar Ernesto. The reconceptualization of labor law in the 21st century. Justicia [online]. 2020, vol.25, n.38, pp.53-76.  Epub 02-Out-2020. ISSN 0124-7441.  https://doi.org/10.17081/just.25.38.4400.

This text will show the historical evolution of work since the Roman era and up to the 19th century, to then address the genesis of labor law or labor law as some well-called legal discipline that regulates labor relations, in order to understand and analyze its relationship with informal employment, as a basic concept of this research. Likewise, mention will be made of the characteristics of labor law in the 20th century, its undeniable limitation to the new flexible forms of work generated by economic globalization, and to the constant struggle of international organizations such as the ILO, to adjust labor regulations. To the production dynamics of the 21st century, in the process of protecting workers.

Using an explanatory method, the main conclusion of this research, affirms the immediate need to reconceptualize labor law, as an instrument of legal regulation that extends to the new flexible ways of linking workers, but in turn to the different representations of the informal work, especially self-employed workers.
