    Trabajando bajo el control del algoritmo: El caso de los repartidores de Rappi en Lima Metropolitana en el contexto de pandemia
    (Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú, 2023-11-22)
    The growth of the gig economy in recent years has revolutionized the world of work due to the changes that have been generated in the organization, forms of control and structure of the labor market in an increasingly flexible and technological context; However, this is accompanied by characteristics typical of job insecurity. In this context, the article seeks to answer how gig economy workers adapt and react to the forms of control and power exercised by platforms. Based on the experience of delivery people from the Rappi platform in Metropolitan Lima based on a case study, this research focuses on two important points: on the one hand, the control strategies used by the company over its workers are analyzed, taking advantage of the crisis generated by COVID-19 and, on the other hand, the immigration situation that characterizes the majority of this workforce. Thus, four forms of control are identified: the customer evaluation system, the flexibility discourse, information asymmetry, and rewards and incentives. On the other hand, it investigates the tactics and mechanisms used by delivery workers as a response to carry out, avoid and resist the degradation of working conditions. This article offers a double contribution: first, it addresses a topic little studied in a particular context such as the Peruvian one, whose labor market is characterized by being highly informal and precarious; and, secondly, it constitutes an advance in research on the relationships of control and resistance in the gig economy.

    Subordinación y agencia: el personaje principal de la película Juliana
    (Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú, 2023-10-16)
    This essay intersectionally analyzes the main character of the film Juliana (1989) in order to highlight the marginal space that frames her and in which she essentially moves, as well as the space where the relations of power and subordination that condition her in the face of the male figure, demanding that he accept submission as a maternal inheritance. It is recalled how race and social class are superimposed on these factors, thus creating simultaneous subordinations. However, it is argued that despite these multiple layers of oppression, Juliana resists and develops an agency that places her in a constant position of questioning, allowing her to challenge the established order.

    Agencia para la ampliación de la capacidad financiera de las mujeres: Estudio cualitativo en dos distritos de Lima Metropolitana, Perú
    (2025-04-23)
    Las brechas de inclusión financiera en Perú limitan las capacidades de ahorro de las mujeres que viven en Lima Metropolitana, específicamente en los distritos de Comas y Carabayllo. Este estudio examina cómo la agencia, entendida como la capacidad de establecer metas, percibir control y actuar en consecuencia, se relaciona con la capacidad financiera (ahorro) en las mujeres. Mediante entrevistas cualitativas a 15 mujeres entre 21 y 65 años, se encontró que la agencia resulta central para la capacidad financiera y viceversa. Tan importante como tener conocimientos sobre productos o servicios financieros formales e informales, es la capacidad que tienen las mujeres para establecer metas y su sentido de control sobre los recursos y los resultados. El ahorro va más allá de la acumulación material, siendo esta una expresión de la agencia que concilia metas personales con la sostenibilidad de la vida familiar. La capacidad de ahorro se encuentra condicionada por la disponibilidad de acceso a recursos financieros (servicios y productos formales o informales), la feminización del trabajo de cuidados no remunerado, la informalidad y contingencias externas en contextos de alta vulnerabilidad económica, que requieren ser atendidas, a través de políticas públicas, para garantizar que la ampliación de la capacidad de ahorro contribuya con mayores niveles de autonomía económica y libertad de las mujeres.
