在劳工研究和劳资关系领域，有一个长期的传统，对改良主义者和马克思主义左派来说都是共同的，把分析重点放在工会上，工会是工人组织的最佳形式。在过去的几十年里，全球政治经济的变化已经完全改变了生产和社会的格局，工会在历史上被插入其中，质疑现有的工会在多大程度上仍然代表着更广泛的工人阶级利益。我认为，尽管存在这种不利的背景，但关于集体组织和冲突的劳资关系研究仍然陷入了一种逻辑，我把这种逻辑套用为马克思所说的工会拜物教。我的批评是一种方法论上的呼吁，要求放弃资本劳动关系的舒适区及其与工会的“共生关系”，将研究领域推向真正的工人阶级分析，以实际存在的社会斗争过程为基础。
In the field of labour studies and industrial relations, there’s a long-standing tradition, common to both the reformist and Marxist left, of focusing the analysis on the trade unions, the par excellence form of workers’ organization. Changes in the global political economy in the past decades have completely altered the productive and social landscape in which trade unions have historically been inserted questioning the extent to which existing trade unions are still representative of broader working-class interests. I argue that despite this adverse context, labour relations research on collective organization and conflict has remained trapped into a logic which I call, paraphrasing Marx, of trade union fetishism. My critique is a methodological call to abandon the comfort zone of the capital labour relation and of its ‘symbiotic relationship’ with trade unions to advance the field of study toward a truly working-class analysis, based on actually existing social processes of struggle.
