Syndicalisme Québécois Face à l'Enjeu des Partenariats Public-Prive: Le Cas de la Sous-traitance

Unionism Quebecers Facing the Public-Private Partnerships: The Case of Outsourcing

Abdellatif Gharyeni and Yasmine Mohamed

MPRA Paper from University Library of Munich, Germany

Abstract: Recent developments in labor relations in Quebec inclined several controversies. The public sector has undergone major changes and has had to adapt and reposition. Like the private sector, subcontracting is normalized with the progress of the neoliberal discourse in public space. This article compares the existing literature between public-private partnerships and outsourcing, trying to prove potential links. A theoretical design is appropriate to support the thesis of reconfiguration of labor markets. The article shows that outsourcing in the public sector is simply a pledge of confusion and inconsistency. Far from achieving its objectives, it has served a factor of tension and conflict between the Quebec government and the unions.
