Summary:The current debate about productive restructuring and the transformations in the so-called "labor world" has put aside the old discussion about the "historical role" of the proletariat, of Marx and Engels. The influence of new actors in the class struggle is highlighted in present researches. In the opposite side of this debate, radical Venezuelan laborer struggles emerge amidst the so-called "Bolivarian Revolution". The factories occupations, protests and demands of laborer's control indicate that the reorganization of political forces and unions are intensifying under a context of a strongly disputed class struggle.
