%0 Journal Article %T Cambios en la organizaci¨®n del trabajo tradicional: Conflictos y actores laborales %A Lucena %A H¨¦ctor %J Revista Venezolana de Gerencia %D 2005 %I Universidad del Zulia %X this article is part of a more general line of research oriented towards analyzing transformations in labor relations. this paper focuses its attention on changes undergone in labor organization and how these changes have affected labor conflictivity. the study begins with the recognition tnat the labor-capital relationship is conflictive by nature, but that mechanisms of co-existence between the these elements and the entire regulatory framework, permit and facilitate the productive function and coexistence. however, changes in the organization of labor that reduce the work force and debilitate historical advances for workers, stimulate the development of collective conflicts which materialize when labor forces are constituted. in the research process in this area, pertinent literature was reviewed, including cases of recent venezuelan labor problems, through pertinent literature and interviews, focusing especially on the sidor strike of 2004. the conclusions point out that changes, even when gradual, undertaken by companies in order to modify work organization, erode the response capacity of the actors who represent workers. %K labor conflict %K collective conflict %K individual conflict %K labor organization %K labor unions %K labors actors. %U http://www.scielo.org.ve/scielo.php?script=sci_abstract&pid=S1315-99842005000100002&lng=en&nrm=iso&tlng=en
