For this purpose, the article analyzes, first, the route of the emblematic company and its gradual absorption by foreign capital. Second, global transformations in the footwear industry. And finally, tensions and representations that are expressed territorially between company, trade unions and workers because of these transformations. A partir del caso de la planta de calzado de Alpargatas ubicada en la localidad de Aguilares, al sur de la provincia de Tucumán, el artículo se propone analizar las transformaciones globales en la industria del calzado –focalizando en la política de externalización de algunos sectores de la producción– y su impacto en las trabajadoras y los trabajadores del sector. Para ello se estudiará, en primer lugar, el recorrido de la emblemática empresa y su paulatina absorción por parte del capital extranjero. En segundo lugar, las transformaciones globales en la industria del calzado. Y, por último, las tensiones y representaciones que se expresan territorialmente entre empresa, sindicato y trabajadores a causa de dichas transformaciones. application/pdf text/html https://ojs.economicas.uba.ar/H-ind/article/view/2104 10.56503/H-Industria/n.28(15)pp.165-180 spa Centro de Estudios de Historia Económica Argentina y Latinoamericana (CEHEAL) https://ojs.economicas.uba.ar/H-ind/article/view/2104/2812 https://ojs.economicas.uba.ar/H-ind/article/view/2104/2822 H-industria.
