Article 04: THE NEW CONTOURS OF SUBORDINATION

Abstract

From the end of the nineteenth century until the second half of the twentieth century we had the period of the State of Social Welfare, a period of marked state intervention in social and economic issues, Pope Leo XIII's encyclical papal rerum novarum, the end of World War I (1914-1918), the Mexican Constitution of 1917, the Weimar Constitution of 1919, that same year we had the Treaty of Versailles, which founded the ILO, a permanent organ of the United Nations since the end of World War II, and the so-called Welfare State. With the end of the Second War, in 1945, until the year 1970, labor law reached its peak, the so-called Golden Age, in the words of Jean Fourasié, "the thirty glorious years." This phase was known as the phase of "social constitutionalism".
