Starting from an etnhnographic longitudinal study on the FIAT-SATA factory in Melfi (PZ), this paper focuses on the local changes of production and work, due to the recent transformation of FIAT into the Fiat -Chrysler enterprise. From the perspective of industrial Anthropology (Selim 1991, Papa 1999, Mollona, De Neve, Parry 2009), we can analyze some local chracteristics (such as the role of trade unions, the attachment to the work, the strong disposition to the sacrifices) and the livelihood strategies (Narotzky 1997) wich have been able to contribute and support the new production, to constitute new possible attractors and maintain the local site in the new global geography of production, with its new forms of embeddedness and local fittings.

Abstract
Starting from an etnhnographic longitudinal study on the FIAT-SATA factory in Melfi (PZ), this paper focuses on the local changes of production and work, due to the recent transformation of FIAT into the Fiat -Chrysler enterprise. From the perspective of industrial Anthropology (Selim 1991, Papa 1999, Mollona, De Neve, Parry 2009), we can analyze some local chracteristics (such as the role of trade unions, the attachment to the work, the strong disposition to the sacrifices) and the livelihood strategies (Narotzky 1997) wich have been able to contribute and support the new production, to constitute new possible attractors and maintain the local site in the new global geography of production, with its new forms of embeddedness and local fittings.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
