About This Book
The work titled "SOCIAL PROTECTION OF WORK AND WORKERS IN TIMES OF CRISIS: THE VENEZUELAN CASE (1999-2019)" by Ramón Darío Sosa Caraballo is presented as a comprehensive and critical examination of the impact both political and economic decisions on labor rights in Venezuela. Through a legal-methodological approach, the author examines the reinterpretation of the concept of social labor protection by the Venezuelan state since 1999, in a context of crisis. This book is organized into three main parts: The first provides a characterization and examination of current trends in the Social Rule of Law, delving into its evolution and expressions in labor and economic contexts. The second part focuses on state involvement in the economic system, examining tactics such as nationalization and the establishment of specialized administrative boards, and their repercussions on private property and corporate economy. The third and final part condenses emerging trends in state intervention, analyzing the anti-liberal discourse and its impact on labor and human rights. Through meticulously well-founded research, the author urges the reader to consider how social labor protection can be used to distort constitutional rights, fostering critical thinking about the future repercussions of such policies in Venezuela's legal and social context. This text is essential for those interested in understanding the intricate relationship between labor law and political dynamics during periods of crisis.
