In semi-structured interviews carried out between August and November 2020, 46 workers, men and women, from three European countries (France, Germany, and Italy), both in secure and precarious jobs, the following research questions were addressed:
- How do the respondents perceive themselves and their living conditions in relation to their employment situations?
- Who do they think is responsible for their conditions?
- What was the impact of the first wave of the pandemic on them?
- What are the interviewees’ hopes and desires? Can they imagine a way to fulfil them, and does this entails collective political action?

- Nathan Gaborit, graduate student at the Sciences Po School of Research and at the School for Advanced Studies in the Social Sciences;
