Short Bio
Maurizio Atzeni divides his time between Argentina and Chile, working as a researcher at CEIL/CONICET and as a Professor of Industrial Relations at the Alberto Hurtado University. The search for him takes place around two main axes. The first is the study of the nature and dynamics of workplace conflict and forms of collective organization of workers. He covers a wide spectrum of cases (auto industry, delivery industry in pre- and post-digitalization contexts, self-managed and cooperative factories, informal labor market) to map conflicts and forms of work organization. A second axis of research studies the forms of work that are produced on the basis of contemporary developments in capitalism. This axis refers to a global and interdisciplinary dimension that has been carried forward in particular in the publications of the Handbook of the Global Political Economy of Work and previously in Workers and Labor in a Globalized Capitalism. In 2022 he founded the international summer school, LabourTransfer, in Sardinia, which combines the academic world of labor studies with trade union activism and territorial development.
