Em Portugal, a aproximação de uma greve geral a 11 de dezembro — a primeira ação conjunta das duas maiores federações sindicais desde 2013 — recorda-nos que o contrato entre o trabalho e o Estado nunca é definitivo, mas antes renegociado em momentos de tensão coletiva. A contestação às reformas laborais propostas pelo governo manifesta-se agora no cancelamento de voos da TAP e numa decisão judicial que tenta equilibrar o direito à greve com a continuidade dos cuidados de saúde essenciais. É neste espaço entre a paragem e a continuidade que as sociedades revelam o que verdadeiramente valorizam.
