Resumen
ZANGARO, Marcela. Subjectivity and labour: managemen as government device. Trab. soc. [online]. 2011, n.16, pp.163-177. ISSN 1514-6871.
For already time, the academic production placed in the sociology of the work and in the organizations theories registers clear interest respect of the contributions that Michel Foucault's analyses allow to realize to the explanations of the relation subjectivity - labour. This paper recovers the last Foucault´s contributions linked with the concepts of practice, technology of the self and government. This recovery points to hold that management can be understood as a device that articulates subjectivation practices proposing to the individuals ways of action on their own selves. To consider the management from this perspective allows to extend the traditional vision that of it there have the psychology and the sociology of the work. Those mentioned perspectives focus it from a knowledge-power that establishes principles that define and control a knowhow to do. Those principles operate as set of obligations imposed on the individuals from out themselves, heteroimposed obligations on the workers. To consider the management as a technology of the self allows to extend this approach provided that it considers, besides the obligations that the management imposes on the individual as technology of production - comunication-power, the obligations that the individuals impose on themselves, autoimposed obligations. This analysis is based on the investigation of the ideational meanings proposed on texts of management.
