ABSTRACT
This conclusion presents some closing thoughts on the concepts discussed in this book. The book examines the process that shapes labor markets, which may be used to set the labor issue within a framework of general economic processes. It deals with the shaping of actors and labor identities that allows the analysis to be directed toward the state and the political system. The types of labor relations typified by both the coffee and banana sectors meant that conditions were not particularly favorable for the development of worker organizations in the accumulative axes of the first half of the century. The crisis intensified precarious labor and the current restructuring of production does not appear to show globalization as being accompanied by more sustained employment dynamics. Thus, insufficient job creation, precarious labor, and fragile labor subjects and actors emerge as the three main historical logics that have—in a vulnerable manner—constructed the world of labor in Central America.
