This article focuses on the experience of self-organised groups of educational workers (educatori) in Bologna (centre-north of Italy) as a significant case of precarious workers’ mobilisation in a local context and specific sector. Several self-organised groups of precarious workers like these ones have spread throughout Europe, trying to compete with trade unions for the representation of their interests in the current crisis. The main aim of this research is to describe and explain the interaction between self-organised groups and trade unions in the outsourced social sector. According to this, new horizons for labour movements and social change can be analysed by exploring the obstacles to and the opportunities of the interaction between these two subjects. 000149911 540__ $$9info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess$$aAll rights reserved$$uhttp://www.europeana.eu/rights/rr-f/ 000149911 592__ $$a0.156$$b2019 000149911 593__ $$aSociology and Political Science$$c2019$$dQ3 000149911 655_4 $$ainfo:eu-repo/semantics/article$$vinfo:eu-repo/semantics/acceptedVersion 000149911 700__ $$0(orcid)0000-0003-0387-9113$$aGentile, Alessandro$$uUniversidad de Zaragoza 000149911 7102_ $$14009$$2775$$aUniversidad de Zaragoza$$bDpto.
