This paper examines the most common and influential academic views about the emergence of a new model ofproductive organization in Brazil, as well as the presumed effects it brings to both work and the working classes. The main streams of that literature are shortly considered, drawing special emphasis upon the Theory of Regulation, and the concepts derivedfrom it, such as taylorism and fordism. As a distinctive contribution, it appeals to a collection of recent work from Brazilian labour social historians as a tool to address the macro-structural account, and to bridge a dialogue between theory and history.
