Descrição
Resumo:The article presented here aims to reflect on the relationship between the social question, the racial issue and the condition of superexploitation of the working class in Brazil. The approach developed here has as a theoretical-methodological option to think the social question from two determinant nuclei of our social formation: structural racism and the superexploitation of the workforce. The expression of racial domination is dialectically related to the superexploitation of the working class, sedimenting class hatred for the poor, after all, the target subjects of this hatred are those whose social place is very well defined. In general, these subjects make up the largest portion of the population that experiences expressions of the social question in Brazil, such as unemployment, poverty, precarious work, urban violence, etc., and are mostly black and/or mixed. The method of analysis used in the article is historical-dialectical materialism, with a methodology based on literature review and document analysis.
