Un espace syndical non revendicatif ? La CGT face aux sportifs de haute performance : actions, revendications et contradictions
Résumé
Although the CGT represents the major Trade Union Confederation in France, it fails in establishing among the “sports space” workers of this country. The latter are generally depicted as “depolitized”, as to explain such a failure. But this allegation is rarely analyzed in itself, as well as its roots. This article then comes up to qualify such an opinion, but also to point out the role of the Trade Unions - and here particularly of the CGT- in such a misunderstanding. Some internal competitions can indeed contribute to explain this situation, but besides, it seems that its deeper roots lie in a lasting incapacity to consider sport as a real working activity.
Les auteurs de ce numéro 27 de la revue Marché et Organisations discutent de la fragilité des emplois liés au sport et des relations sociales toujours en quête de sens. Le marché du travail sportif ne va pas de soi : comme pour les artistes, il renvoie à un domaine réputé singulier dérogeant par nature au droit commun du travail. A l’exception culturelle des premiers, correspondrait une spécificité sportive pour les travailleurs du sport.
