The article focuses on young workers in the activist production field, defined as production that explicitly expresses a militant stance. Looking at several fields of the solidarity economy and the online business La Ruche qui dit Oui!, the research encountered individuals looking for new forms of labor and/or employment. Their profiles were similar, all sharing the urge to combine personal beliefs and remuneration by engaging in socially responsible professional activity.

Some of them combine this with a rejection of waged employment, preferring a labor framework that gives them autonomy and flexibility.
