STECHER, Antonio. A Critical-Interpretive Model for the Study of Labor Identities. Contributions to Psychosocial Research on Work and Subjectivity in Latin America. Univ. Psychol. [online]. 2013, vol.12, n.4, pp.1311-1324. ISSN 1657-9267.

This article presents a theoretical model for studying labor identities. It is based on the contributions of narrative, symbolic interactionism and critical traditions. This model is meant to be a contribution to the development of the Social Psychology of Work in Latin America, specifically in regard to research on relations between work and subjectivity in the context of the new capitalism. We propose a conceptualization of labor identities, which realizes its character of symbolic production narratively articulated (narrative identities), and its character of social process and emergent of social interactions symbolically mediated. Also visualizes how labor identities, as product (narrative) and as socio-symbolic process, are always set within a macro-social and institutional context crossed by relations power.

Palabras clave : Labor identities; work; subjectivity; Latin America; Social Psychology; Identity.
