AVILA GANDRA, Edgar  y  CEDREZ DA SILVA, Thiago. Federation Stevedores of Brazil: path, organizational structure and fight for rights. Av. Cesor [online]. 2019, vol.16, n.21, pp.199-215. ISSN 1514-3899.

This text seeks to reconstruct the dynamics of power and the trade union organization of the Brazilian stevedoring category. As a temporary cut, we list as a framework the years 1950 to 1963. In addition, we challenge ourselves to understand their established political relations with both the trade union universe and with government public bodies. We will seek, in this way, to understand how the stowage category organized its national demands regarding working conditions and in a context of political advances and setbacks that marked this tense Brazilian moment. We start from the central hypothesis that unity in a federation was a sine qua non condition to articulate the demands of the different stowage unions in the country and, thus, begin a struggle for the conquest of rights in a consistent manner. Why we carry out this analysis, our research, different sources to reflect on the proposed topic.
