Travail précoce au Brésil: réalité sociale et enjeu politique

Sonia Rocha

Revue Tiers-Monde, 2003, vol. n° 176, issue 4, 911-927

Abstract: The article characterizes the labour of children aged between 10 and 14 years. Given that the age of entry into the labour market does not play a preponderant role on individuals' future income, the study relies on other pertinent aspects of reality, such as the combination of labour and schooling, and their incidence on laborious activities. Widespread as it still is, premature labour reflects a wide range of varying life situations. Therefore, critical conditions requiring the deployment of a specific social policy, that doubly aims at child protection and at fighting future poverty, must be precisely identified.
