The processes of precarisation have been investigated through two main lines of enquiry and sociological investigation. The first - developed mainly in the field of economic sociology - focuses on the precarity of work, investigated in the structural dimensions that have progressively eroded the Fordist employment regime for a growing part of the labour force. The second line of investigation, on the other hand, reflects on the precarious ontolo- gy of the contemporary subject and the existential precariousness that permeates the entire life of individuals. Drawing on the results of a series of studies conducted mainly in Italy, this article frames precariousness in terms of the production of subjectivity, also in the light of the pandemic context, and discusses potential forms of resistance through care, proximity and the construction of social relations based on the affective encounter of bodies.
