El presente trabajo analiza los hitos históricos más relevantes del proceso evolutivo del sindicalismo venezolano. Se discutirá la etapa de deterioro del movimiento sindical, en el que esta organización se vio arrastrada por la inercia de una crisis política, económica y social de grandes magnitudes, evidenciada durante su más reciente período a través del autodenominado “socialismo del siglo XXI”. Se mostrarán los signos y claves sociohistóricos que condujeron al sindicalismo venezolano hasta el presente, pero que a su vez le proyectarán hacia el futuro. La premisa consiste en que la organización sindical es parte subsidiaria fundamental de la institucionalidad necesaria para la revitalización del sistema democrático venezolano. Finalmente se reflexionará sobre propuestas y plantea-mientos de reconstrucción de la institucionalidad sindical y democrática.
Abstract
The article analyses the crucial historical landmarks of the evolution of Trade Unionism in Venezuela. The downturn of the Trade Union movement driven by the inertia of a political, economic and social crisis of great scope, is examined as evidenced during the most recent period of the self-proclaimed ‘Socialism of the 21st Century’. This contri-bution discusses the socio-historical facts and key aspects, which led Venezuelan Trade Unionism until present times, but which at the same time will shape its future. The premise consists in that labor organization is a vital and subsidiary part of the institutional setting required for the revitalization of the Venezuelan democratic system. Finally, additional reflections will be given to developing different proposals and approaches for the recons-truction of the trade union institutional framework and democratic system.
