The construction of the concept of selfbody on the work of Yves Schwartz

Abstract

This article deals with the process of constructing the concept of selfbody in the work of the philosopher Yves Schwartz, seizing human activity as “dramatics use of the body-self.” Seeking to give visibility and systematization to the course of construction of this concept, allusions are made to the way in which Schwartz has critically recaptured the contributions of different authors. It is understood that the concept of selfbody contributes to the understanding of the subjective dimension of work, without offering closed answers, indicating that it is only possible to contribute to the understand and transformation of the work of others, building a partnership that is both an epistemic project as well as the construction of a common society.

Keywords:
work and organizational psychology; work activity; work and subjectivity; body-self; ergology
