SEGURA GUTIERREZ, José Miguel. Company, power and individual: Neoliberalism as producer of subjectivity. Civilizar [online]. 2016, vol.16, n.31, pp.113-126. ISSN 1657-8953.  https://doi.org/10.22518/16578953.645.

This article explores how the company produces certain subjectivity in the individual, from the tension between institutional frameworks and social practices in the neoliberal context. The concept of a company is emphasized as a social construct and apparatus of power, which via management function and decision-making, ensures the configuration of a certain social order, which simultaneously reproduces the logic of capital -increment of productivity and consumption capacity-. The latter, with a view to pointing out that in the company-individual relationship, not only an economic-administrative approach, but also a philosophical and social approach is possible, facing the different dynamics of socialization and processes of individuation, which structure the life of individuals inside the work space.

Keywords : Organization; person; authority relationships; subjectivity..
