MONTARCE, Inés. Tensions between Law And Politics: The Delivery of Labor Justice in the Conflicts of Luz y Fuerza del Centro and Compañía Mexicana de Aviación. Rev. mex. cienc. polít. soc [online]. 2017, vol.62, n.230, pp.51-74. ISSN 0185-1918.

This article analyzes how labor justice was delivered in the conflicts of Luz y Fuerza del Centro and Compañía Mexicana de Aviación, focusing on the performance of the Juntas de Conciliación y Arbitraje (Conciliation and Arbitration Boards), as they are the main institutions responsible for ensuring compliance with labor law in the country. Based on interviews and an exhaustive documental review, we reconstruct the behavior of those agencies in both cases, considering the way in which legal and political facts were overlapped, and how this impacted on a due enforcement of labor justice. As a result of the research, we identify tensions between legal and political practices, recognizing that the former’s autonomy leeway vis-à-vis the sphere of power varies in both cases, according to the relations of forces, the internal logic of action, and the strategies displayed by the different actors.
