В сенките на несигурността: законодателството и неформалните работници
In the Shadows of Insecurity: Legislation and Informal Workers

Summary/Abstract: The article problematizes the lack of social security rights for those working in the informal economy in Bulgaria from the point of view of the existing legislation. On the basis of in-depth interviews with two labor experts and ongoing participant observation in the work of the Union of Self-Employed and Informal Workers in the period 2021–2023, several topics have been identified that could be the basis for social dialogue and progress in the protection of this kind of labour. The attempted analysis is based on the engaged categories (goods) embedded in the narratives of the interviewees, in the sense involved in Luc Boltanski and Laurent Thévenot’s concept of „orders of significance“ and „modes/regimes of engagement“.
