This chapter outlines the main concepts examined and defined by the French jurist Alain Supiot, and traces the argumentative trajectories of his proposals for reflection and action, which - as the document seeks to emphasize - transcend the boundaries of law and represent real prospects for social change, with the aim of guaranteeing and protecting citizenship rights beyond employment. In summary, after a brief biographical introduction (1), the essay will discuss the transformations of work, intertwined with the financialization of the economy and the process of globalization, and the protection of work beyond employment (2); the new rights and concept of “mondialisation” as a barrier to the total market (3); the meaning of work and social justice according to the author (4).
