STECHER, Antonio. The Flexible Enterprise as a Government Apparatus: Contributions of the Analytics of Governmentality for Study of Labor Subjectivities in Latin America. Univ. Psychol. [online]. 2015, vol.14, n.spe5, pp.1779-1794. ISSN 1657-9267.  https://doi.org/10.11144/Javeriana.upsy14-5.efdg.

We discuss the contributions of the analytics of governmentality developed by Foucault to critically examine transformations in work and in labor subjectivities in Latin America, in the context of flexible capitalism. The way the flexible enterprise and neomanagerial discourse can be conceptualized as a government apparatus, in which particular games of truth, power relations and ways of subjectivation are intertwined, is discussed. We present 4 traits of government racionality of the flexible enterprise - Human capital , incorporating social life and subjectivity in the production process, postdisciplinary control technologies, new ideal of flexible worker- highlighting ways of labor subjectivation that promote and their affinities with the logic of neoliberal governmentality.

Palabras clave : subjectivity; work; governmentality; flexible enterprise; Foucault.
