| description | This paper is about the hiring practices and mechanisms of favoritism and retribution waged by foremen and workers in some Chilean docks during the first decades of the 20th century. Based on press and business bulletins from the docks of saltpeter and the Concepción area, the conclusion argues that this favoritism was based on a mechanism of retribution constituted mainly by the consumption of alcohol that the workers made in taverns associated with the foremen who nominated the crews. The workers’ way of answering this arbitrariness were the rotating systems for the distribution of the work that they struggled to establish and keep during 1918 and 1923: the “redondilla” and the “turno numerado”. |

The workers’ way of answering this arbitrariness were the rotating systems for the distribution of the work that they struggled to establish and keep during 1918 and 1923: the “redondilla” and the “turno numerado”. Este artículo trata sobre las prácticas de contratación y los mecanismos de favoritismo y retribución entablados por capataces y obreros en algunos puertos chilenos durante las primeras décadas del siglo XX. Basada en evidencia tomada de la prensa y boletines empresariales del norte salitrero y la bahía de Concepción, la conclusión sostiene que dicho favoritismo se fundó en un mecanismo de retribución constituido principalmente por el consumo de alcohol que los obreros hacían en bares asociados con los capataces que nominaban las cuadrillas. El modo de contestación obrera a esta arbitrariedad fueron los sistemas rotativos para la repartición del trabajo que los mismos bregaron por instaurar y mantener durante 1918 y 1923: la “redondilla” y el “turno numerado”. 2021-05-04 2022-03-22T15:04:26Z 2022-03-22T15:04:26Z info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion http://revistas.ucn.cl/index.php/estudios-atacamenos/article/view/3636 10.22199/issn.0718-1043-2021-0003 http://biblioteca-repositorio.clacso.edu.ar/handle/CLACSO/80334 spa http://revistas.ucn.cl/index.php/estudios-atacamenos/article/view/3636/3737 http://revistas.ucn.cl/index.php/estudios-atacamenos/article/view/3636/3767 Derechos de autor 2021 Camilo Andrés Santibáñez Rebolledo http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0 application/pdf application/epub+zip Universidad Católica del Norte, Instituto de Investigaciones Arqueológicas y Museo Estudios Atacameños; Vol. 67 (2021): Rolling pass; e3636 Estudios Atacameños (En línea); Vol. 67 (2021): Publicación continua; e3636 0718-1043 0716-0925 10.22199/issn.0718-1043-2021 |
