Abstract

This paper studies the roll of Family Allowances as indirect wages from a perspective of economic history. The analysis, made from the perspective of the Régulation Theory, focuses on uruguayan industrial workers and covers the period 1943-2005. From the analysis of Family Allowances as an instrument that favours industrial workers’ income equality, stabilizes internal demand and corrects some of the inequalities generated by direct wages, among other aspects, we conclude that Family Allowances were not a significant component of indirect wages. Therefore, these benefits did not allow the Uruguayan State to affect the wage-labour nexus
