 Possible Futures of the Sochaux SystemJean-Pierre Durand and Nicolas Hatzfeld Chapter 5 in Living Labour, 2003, pp 218-240 from Palgrave Macmillan Abstract: Abstract Since the summer of 2000, the object of our investigation has undergone further transformation, and the colourful new Habillage Caisse building now also accommodates the Montage Voiture shop. Throughout the preceding chapters, the question of change has been there just beneath the surface, even when it hasn’t arisen overtly, as in the comparison of the HC and MV shops, or in workers’ recollections of developments at work. The Peugeot-Sochaux plant has witnessed several phases of change in the organisation of work, each of which has been an issue, a focus of contention around which were revealed, constituted and recomposed distinct and sometimes contradictory positions whose richness and complexity is not always entirely reflected in the current situation that is their historical outcome. This is all the more so as reference to the very existence or reality of change may be an important distinguishing feature, one of the questions at issue in the construction of identities and solidarities within the shop.
