Focus: Social Sciences
The course reconstitutes the methodological critique, the co-research act and the tradition of the “workers’ inquiry” as they took place, as a “Collective Research Model”, inside the Observatory for Working and Living Conditions (OCVT) / NOVA4TheGlobe / Universidade Nova de Lisboa, during the last few years, making known a dual perspective: research the work and work the research out, in a dialectical conception of critical theoretical work and empirical social research, from the standpoint of the horizon of possibles of the centrality of “living work”. In this sense, it rebuilds the movement that gave rise to the collective intellectual that animates the OCVT, from a historical time and a specific social place, it proposes an open conversation about the very meaning of the formation of the subjectivity of the being-that-works, as social agency and, finally, in a tentative or exploratory way, raises the question of integral human emancipation. For this, it moves through diserent moments, i) researching the work, ii) working the research and iii) towards a collective research model, and the excursions, iv) for a public and organic social science of the world of work; v) combined methodological triangulation or mobile center topological system and vi) some notes by way of conclusion: “what is to be done” and “where to begin with”? Keywords: Critical Theory; Methodology; Co- research; Research-action and global workers’ inquiry.
