O desenvolvimento de uma sociedade enferma? considerações da psicanálise para o estudo sobre a atual relação homem-trabalho-capital

Abstract

This work will perform a initial study on the socio-historical development of man in relation to the work's world: the aim is, through an analysis of the main forms of work organization, identify a possible state of illness of contemporary society. In this respect, it will be perceived job insecurity, marked by flexibility of labor rights and the greater volatility of work - involving higher turnover, schedule changes and positions and finding further alienation of labor - acts in favor of this idea. However, this analysis, in the perception of this author, is seen as limited, considering largely materialistic aspects. Aiming to give greater completeness to the analysis, it is hoped will include perspectives of psychoanalysts dedicated to the study of work and the impact that the work activity has to the worker's mental apparatus. This study may thus contribute to a deeper understanding about the significance of the human labor and the real impacts of different organizations of work in the misrepresentation of being, which involves both mental and physical consequences. For this, the works will be studied and outlined the prospects of Sigmund Freud, which will be devoted special space due to its position as the founder of psychoanalysis, Christophe Dejours, physician and psychiatrist considered the developer of the psychodynamics of work, and Erich Fromm, with its analysis focused on the social aspects and the prospect of a future society. At the end, it will be noticed that the man, yes, is in the process of growing infirmity, from the moment it is understood that the organization of work misrepresents the real purpose of the work, whether through the materialistic outlook, whether through prospects libidinal, narcissistic and symbolic, presented by psychoanalysts chosen. This disease of the work will not be limited to the business's space, but will radically affect human behavior beyond, impacting from the family to society.
