Work and social issue from the Edlene Pimentel´s perspective

Abstract

The article´s objective is to contribute to the analysis of the social issue in the light of work as society´s ontological basis, regarding the theoretical and analytical contribution of Edlene Pimentel in order to understand the contemporary society and mainly the “social issues manifestations”.Hence, from there, discuss the possibilities and limitations of Robert Castel and Pierre Rosanvallon´s interpretations about the social issue and, specially, its “new”  manifestations in a society where the capital/work contradiction has not yet disappeared.
