Description
Summary:The present study aims to address a phenomenon generated by the harmful consequences of globalization, which is precisely the formation of a market and informal professions. It is intended, therefore, to show that the implications of this economic transformation in the social aspect of the country, such as the increase in the unemployment rate and a loss of space for local production companies. Thus, from the analysis of a specific social group – the recyclable material collectors – which emerged in a scenario of search for alternatives to unemployment, this work will demonstrate the main obstacles faced by those individuals who are victims of the phenomenon of invisibility. To achieve such goal, the Axel Honneth (2007) theory of recognition will be used. The objective of this study, made through bibliographic research, is to analyze the factors that prevent a social group (victim of the phenomenon of public invisibility) from obtaining full recognition from the State and society of which it is a member. As main results, it is evident that the deficient access to the basic rights, even in face of the achievements reached by the group under analysis, is the main obstacle to this recognition.
