Abstract

The process of productive reestructuring of enterprises that happened around the nineties, occurred by financialization of economy within the expantion of neoliberal reforms, affected deeply the status of labour around the world. The wide-spread exportarion of a consumption based culture, the dissemination of deregulation of the market fulfilled by Washington Consensus and a desperate attemped to expand the global market to generate income resulted on the precarization of the work relations through the criation of a chain of subcontracting industries and common transference of part of the production, resulting in the exponential growth of informal labour around the globe. This present article analyses the efects of the productive global reestructuring through looking at the conditions of textile industries on underdeveloped contries as well as the sexual labour division. By the study of those at the end of the production chain, the feminicides of around 600 woman, in your majority industrial workers in Ciudad Juarez – Mexico, that ocurred since 1993 resulted by supply and demand of work oportunities in the region and the work conditions of bolivian workers in São Paulo – Brazil, is that we try to comprehend the limits of precariousness of human life and in what way the females compose the backbone of global labour.
