The 21st century began with very complex problems that have been producing a great ecological, social and economic impact: natural catastrophes, social inequalities, wars and migrations of scale. All this in a context of globalization with exclusion and segregation of an increasingly precarious and vulnerable population. This situation produced by the establishment of an extractive and predatory model that has been installed in the Latin American region, which constantly threatens the possibility of sustainability as a way of life. The main objective of this article is to reflect on the fundamentals of the current crisis and its link with the region's development model and the risks to sustainability. For this, and hermeneutical analysis is proposed, the theoretical approach of decolonial sociology is used, which allows us to situate ourselves in our Latin American.

The neoliberal economy in its process of expansion and continuous capacity of reinvention has been adapted to the new contexts of crisis and has generated socioeconomics relations under new forms of labor relations and mechanisms of work. This is how since the last decade new forms of independent work have massively emerged, precarious jobs in the so called collaborative economy that reproduce and extend the continuous informalization and precariousness of employment in Peruvian society, now involved in the entrepreneurship speech. The aim is to analyze the new emerging labor forms in the precariat economy, all of this on the base of a case study of the delivery men of the Rappi, Uber eats and Glovo platforms. The methodology used has been qualitative, 12 in-depth interviews were conducted, the fieldwork was carried out between 2018-2019 in Lima Metropolitana.

This article analyzes the fears and concerns many Venezuelan immigrants living in Peru go through every day. It delves into the communication dynamics between Peruvians and Venezuelans, as well as into its consequences at an intersubjective level. Methodologically, it is based on data gathered from interviews in Ayacucho, Chiclayo, Cusco and mainly in Lima. Basically, the life histories of immigrants in vulnerable situation are analyzed, whether they are unemployed, asking for financial support on the street or having undergone any difficult experience. Finally, the expectations they hold on the future are joined together, identifying a series of hopes they embrace to survive to the exploitation and discrimination they would face. However, this study still addresses the encouraging frameworks in a country that, as it is understood, is still an important migration destination for them.
