Abstract

The effort of this research begins in the experience of defeat, the protagonists are workers and workers, the scenery, the Baixada Fluminense, city Duque de Caxias – RJ. To characterize a defeat may have a heroic tone laden with learning capable of saving from hopelessness, may a defeat be momentary, but here defeat is a feminine noun that translates the space traveled or to be traveled, is the production of paths in the face of possibilities and unpredictability. On January 10, 1996, the Rio de Janeiro Screw Production Cooperative was created, forty-two men and two women who had in common the unemployment and a labor process, the work lasted nineteen years and ended in 2015. It was sought to revisit and reconstruct this working memory, starting from the worker as subject bearer of a memory located and experienced in the class struggle, in order to think about the action and resistance of the working class before the transmutations of the salary society.
