DEVELOPMENT AND DISSEMINATION OF THE PREMISES OF A “DIGITAL UNIONISM” MODEL

Abstract

The reform of the union system always presented a great controversy, mainly because it needs the competence of the national congress, a very bureaucratic and delayed reform, at the same time, the relations between representatives and represented ones change at any moment through the technological discoveries. The purpose of this paper is to reflect on the current crisis of the trade union system, especially its representativeness towards workers. The research will delimit representativity because this is one of the essential pillars of trade unionism. The work was based on bibliographical research, using sources such as scientific articles, books, dissertations and theses, mainly, information and communication technologies. It is concluded that just as technological processes could transform the way governments interact with citizens, this premise may be adaptable to union reality, where there is growing disinterest in these organizations, especially those who were born in the technological era, group Known as "z-generation".
