Abstract

PULIDO-MARTINEZ, Hernán Camilo  and  SATO, Leny. ...So, What is Critique? On the Relationships between Psychology and the World of Work. Univ. Psychol. [online]. 2013, vol.12, n.4, pp.1355-1368. ISSN 1657-9267.

This article considers different ways in which have been formulated objections to the relationship established between psychology and the world of work. The main perspectives that propose critiques are revisited to establish the core analyses and their main objectives pursued. The discussion aims to contribute to the construction of an attitude of balance that differs from those catastrophic perspectives which evaluate psychology as a knowledge that promotes control and subordination and those optimistic positions which find in this knowledge some strategies for progress, wellbeing and emancipation.

Keywords : Critical psychology; work psychology; subjectivity; social studies of psychology; psychologization; Social Psychology; Work; Colombia.
