Abstract
The aim of this article is to try to reinsert into labor market analysis the socio-historical dimension essential to its functioning, but which had been neglected by approaches too much concerned with following economic models At the same time, the authors seek to make analysis tools of segmentation of labor market processes more precise These processes must be understood as a form of correspondence between some types of jobs and some categories of workers, which defines specific job trajectories that are called 'career lines'. Divisions in the structure of the labor market cannot be explained by a single overall process, but are caused by specific interactions of a set of economic, political, institutional and social factors.
