BORGEAUD-GARCIANDIA, Natacha  e  LAUTIER, Bruno. The personalisation of domination in labour relations: women workers in maquilas and women in domestic service in Latin America. Rev. Mex. Sociol [online]. 2014, vol.76, n.1, pp.89-113. ISSN 2594-0651.

Latin America is characterised by a huge diversity in the forms of employment and labour relations prevalent there. The comparison between two situations which would appear to be unrelated -maquiladoras and domestic employment- enables us to highlight the centrality of hierarchical labour relations and the personalisation of domination. The article begins with a presentation of these two work environments. It then analyses the personalisation of domination relations, examining the hypothesis that, far from being a characteristic of certain "archaic" forms of work and employment, paternalism is in fact a dimension deeply rooted in the most contemporary modes of labour relations, both in the "North" and in the "South".
