ABSTRACT

Se bosqueja teóricamente en qué consiste el Análisis Existencial y la Logoterapia, enfoque psicoterapéutico que en Chile se ha ido desarrollando paulatinamente. La Logoterapia fue inicialmente propuesta por Viktor Frankl como un complemento para el Psicoanálisis; con el paso del tiempo se constituyó como un enfoque independiente. Este autor, desde el Análisis Existencial, desarrolla a partir de los Valores Personales, una Teoría del Sentido Existencial, según la cual, desde éste último, el ser humano es capaz de alzarse por sobre su situación concreta. Lãngle amplía la base analítico – existencial de ésta aproximación, al elaborar fenomenológicamente una rigurosa sistematización, con arreglo a cuatro Motivaciones Fundamentales (MF) planteadas por él: 1MF: poder existir; 2MF: gustar existir; 3MF: permitirse ser como uno esencialmente es; 4MF: Sentido Existencial. Lo expuesto es consistente con los sistemas de diagnóstico y tratamiento psicoterapéutico actualmente empleados. La dimensión dialógica, en su ascepción más amplia, y la relación profundamente personal entre el paciente y su terapeuta, son la piedra angular, desde la cual, el proceso se despliega.


Existential Analysis and Logotherapy is gradually developing in Chile; consequently, a theoretical account is given. Logotherapy was initially proposed by Viktor Frankl as a complement for Psychoanalysis; as time passed, it set itself as an independent psychotherapeutic approach. Based on Existential Analysis, this author developed a Theory of Existential Meaning or Sense, which is rooted in Personal Values. According to him, the human being can rise up above his concrete situation, based upon his/her Existential Meaning or Sense. Lãngle expands the existential foundation of this approach, making as rigorous phenomenological systematization according to four Fundamental Motivations (FM) of Existence, suggested by him: 1FM: to be able to exist; 2FM: to like existence; 3FM:to let oneself exist as one essentially is; 4FM: Existential Meaning or Sense. This is consistent with the current diagnostic and psychotherapeutic treatments. Dialogue, in its most broad sense, and the profoundly personal relationship between the patient and his/her therapist, are the cornerstones from which all the process spreads out.

ABSTRACT

Existem, atualmente, mais de 300 hipóteses relativas à caracterização, função e mecanismos do envelhecimento, possivelmente devido ao aumento de idosos no mundo. Embora se avente uma função social à velhice humana, as transformações da sociedade impuseram uma cultura de descarte, incluindo pessoas como os idosos. Tal exclusão, que se associa à tristeza, depressão e morte desse grupo, é contraditória ao aumento do tempo de vida dos idosos constatado atualmente. O presente trabalho tentou determinar os aspectos ambientais envolvidos na longevidade usando uma técnica de metodologia qualitativa denominada grounded theory (ou teoria fundamentada nos dados) em dados fornecidos por ex-ferroviários longevos. Constatou-se que as representações dos ex-ferroviários confluem para a categoria central: desolação pelo aniquilamento da vida e do ambiente, no presente, devido à continuada negligência do Estado e da Sociedade na promoção e preservação das coisas boas para a vida que havia no passado. Observou-se ainda que, paralelamente à hipervalorização genérica das coisas do passado, há constatação recente de que suas existências fizeram parte da epopeia que promoveu o desenvolvimento econômico e social do interior paulista e possibilitou uma ressignificação existencial do passado, sugerindo ser um potente mecanismo de defesa que culmina em longevidade. Tal achado se insere na hipótese de que a função da longevidade seria a de preservar um contingente social com conhecimentos de um modo de vida que deu certo por ser socialmente vantajoso.


Nowadays there are more than 300 hypotheses to explain ageing characteristics, function and mechanisms, possibly due to the large and increasing number of old people in the world. Though having a social function attributed to elders, transformations - under way currently in society - have imposed a discard culture, including old people. This is an authentic exclusion that is frequently associated with sadness, depression and death in its group, contradicting the alleged idea that older people increase life-time (as has been observed in recent years). This manuscript has the aim of determining environmental aspects involved with longevity; it thus uses "grounded theory", a technique of qualitative research method, operating on data provided by elderly former railroad workers. It was observed that former railroad worker's social representations convey to a central category: desolation from perceiving life and environmental annihilation due to continuous State and Society negligence to promote and preserve good things - that existed in the past. We can also observe that, in a parallel way, by hyper valorizing past things, they recognize their existence as part of an epic process that promoted the São Paulo state countryside economic and social development, with an existential meaning to the past, which suggests to be a strong defense mechanism that contributes to longevity. This finding can be included in the hypothesis that the function of longevity would be to preserve a social contingent with knowledge about a way of life that was successful because it was socially advantageous.
