Περίληψη

Η έννοια της «άτυπης εργασίας» χρησιμοποιείται ευρύτατα στις κοινωνικές επιστήμες και επηρεάζει την αντίληψή μας για τον κοινωνικό κόσμο. Πρόκειται όμως για έννοια ουδέτερη και αμερόληπτη; Η παρούσα μελέτη βασίζεται σε εκτεταμένα και ανεκμετάλλευτα αρχεία της Διεθνούς Οργάνωσης Εργασίας που καθιέρωσε την έννοια της «άτυπης εργασίας»· σκιαγραφεί το ευρύτερο ιστορικό πλαίσιο γένεσης του όρου, τις διαδικασίες διάδοσής του και αναδεικνύει την κύρια ιδεολογική εμμονή της εποχής: την επιταγή οικονομικής ανάπτυξης μέσω μαζικής εκβιομηχάνισης. Επικεντρωμένη στην περίπτωση της Ελλάδας, από τις αρχές του 20ού αιώνα έως τη δεκαετία του 1980, η μελέτη αντιπαραθέτει διαρκώς τα πραγματολογικά δεδομένα και την ιδεολογική τους μεθερμήνευση. Η έννοια της «άτυπης εργασίας» αντιμετωπίζεται εδώ ως ένας βασικός δείκτης για την προσέγγιση του σύνθετου φαινομένου που ονομάζεται ιδεολογική ηγεμονία.
