Description
Summary:The article brings results of a survey applied to users of the subway service in the city of São Paulo in 2019. The object of the investigation was the perception of users of this service about the strikes triggered by its workers. It was noticed that the user population tended to approve the strike activities based on an understanding that can be systematized in the expression “the right to have rights”; that is, subway workers would have the right to fight for better employment and remuneration conditions. User support for strikes increased if they also demanded improvements in the service provided. This understanding, however, challenges the ways in which strikes, their motives and consequences are publicized by the commercial press — fundamentally, as something negative, which harms the public. How users get information and why the interpretation of strikes by this press is not completely hegemonic among them are the questions and specific data that we will address in this article. For this, we will mobilize, for the analysis of a typical case of the Sociology of Work, contributions from the Sociology of Reception. Keywords: strike, Metro, rights, user profile.
