Chapter 1Introduction -- Chapter 2Precarious work and possibilities of union resistance in Brazil -- Chapter 3How to represent the unrepresented? Renewing the collective action repertoires of autonomous workers in three countries -- Chapter 4Digitization and collective representation strategies in Spain -- Chapter 5The representation of precarious workers: two case studies from Portugal -- Chapter 6Work platforms, informality and forms of resistance: the case of on-demand workers in the city of São Paulo -- Chapter 7Gender representation in the high-tech sector in Italy: the required alliance between trade unions and women associations -- Chapter 8The representation of platform workers through Facebook groups in Bulgaria – a partially-filled void -- Chapter 9Conclusion.

This book compiles empirical evidence on both the challenges raised by neo-liberal policies and the internet to trade unions, and the development of more flexible forms of worker organisation and collective representation. The relationship with digital devices seems inevitably to contribute to differentiating trends, simultaneously acting as an internal and external constraint on organisation. Gathering academics and experts from European and Brazilian universities, this book is recommended for researchers and students in the fields of sociology of work, labour studies and collective action, as well as practitioners and others interested in worker interest organisations and collective representation in the early 21st Century. Raquel Rego is a Research Fellow at the Instituto de Ciências Sociais from the Universidade de Lisboa, Portugal, where she also teaches both in the PhD Program of Sociology-OpenSoc and in the PhD Program of Comparative Politics and International Relations. Hermes Augusto Costa is Vice-Dean and Professor at the Faculty of Economics from the Universidade de Coimbra, and a Researcher at Centro de Estudos Sociais, Portugal. He co-coordinates the PhD Program in Sociology: Labour Relations, Social Inequalities and Trade Unionism.
