Abstract

Transformations in the last three decades have produced a global context that is particularly adverse to trade union action. But in the case of the countries of southern Europe - peripheral countries in the euro zone - the most recent moment, characterized by the implementation of austerity policies, constitutes an essential framework that sought to effect structural changes in the sphere of labour relations. The present work intends to study the evolution of portuguese trade unionism using the theoretical framework of power resources. The study is divided into four parts: first, it gives a panoramic view of the economy, labour relations and trade unionism; second, analyzes the process of asymmetric European integration and the implementation of the austerity policies (2011-2015); third, studies the new political context produzed by the legislative election of October 4, 2015; finally, advances some considerations on the evolution of the power resources of Portuguese trade unionism.
