Abstract

This article analyzes the characteristics of legal regulation of child labor, since the Labor Code of 1931 to the specific regulation of Decree Law No. 2200, known as "Labor Plan". Previously, it analyzes the political, economic and legal conditions that made possible and necessary a special regulation for child labor, since the Industrial Revolution, which created the conditions for the widespread use of such labor, to the phenomenon of decoding, which led to the enactment of special laws in detriment of a Civil Code, which increasingly lost more regulatory power.

Keywords:

Industrial Revolution, decoding, Labor Code of 1931, D.L. 2.200, child labor
