Resumo
The question that we raise here concerns chiefly the political conditions, namely the actions of the western democracies in the context of the prevailing economic, cultural and military globalization. We recognize therefore the incoherence of the democratic societies, creators of social inequalities and violators
of fundamental rights in the name of an increasingly powerful transcontinental elite. By losing the social identity, an essential
component of the cultural identity, the socially excluded also lose their cultural identity. Even when they have possibilities
of being represented in the public space of the representative democracies through the right for cultural claims, as Wiewiorka tells
us, the problem is better stated by Norberto Bobbio, who does not emphasize the rights of claim or protest, but rather the need to
determine who is the guarantor of those rights. The right to work is an essentiaL component of cultural identity.
