ABSTRACT

Resumo Este artigo tem como objetivo revisar o tema da autoajuda, esquematizando a origem do conceito e sua ligação com temáticas cotidianas e ramos acadêmicos responsáveis pela construção desse fenômeno. Para isso, o ponto de partida é o pensamento de intelectuais que procuram expor como a autoajuda acompanha o percurso do mundo do trabalho e do sistema capitalista, apropriando-se de artifícios de legitimação. Busca-se apontar caminhos pelos quais é possível abordar a temática da autoajuda para além de sua crítica como literatura supérflua.


Abstract This article reviews the topic of self-help, from the origin of this concept to its connection with everyday themes, as well as the branches of academia responsible for the construction of this phenomenon. The starting point in this process is intellectual thinking meant to show how self-help is present in the world of work and the capitalist system, appropriating methods of legitimation. Ways of addressing the topic of self-help are sought out, beyond its critiques as superfluous literature.

ABSTRACT

Elaborada durante as discussões da Lei Seca e o Sufrágio Universal nos EUA, no início do século XX - duas emendas que seriam aprovadas no sistema constitucional americano -, Memórias alcoólicas, do escritor norteamericano Jack London, é considerada uma obra referencial sobre o tema do alcoolismo. Tendo esse tema como fio condutor, o artigo analisa como a sua prosa se constitui em prática de si enquanto construção de subjetividade e organização da existência. Investiga como essa obra estabelece relações com a temática do cuidado de si, problematizada por Michel Foucault nos volumes 2 e 3 da História da sexualidade, acerca da estética da existência e das artes de viver presentes no universo social greco-romano e helenístico.


Employing this theme as a guideline, this article examines how his prose amounts to self-practice in the construction of subjectivity and the organization of existence. It investigates how this work is related to the theme of self-care, analyzed by Michel Foucault in volumes 2 and 3 of the History of sexuality, as regards the aesthetics of existence and the art of living which existed in the Greco-Roman and Hellenistic worlds.

ABSTRACT

There are many ways to understand self-management. They vary from Government-dependent technical-administrative meanings (i.e. hospital self-management, in the context of health reform in Chile), to those related to efforts to abolish the State. Thus, the "self-management" concept was developed from the very beginning by the anarchist movement as one of its organizational principies. Henee, there is a need to break myths and prejudices about anarchist philosophy seen as a synonym of chaos, and to review its deeply constructive aspects and its highly moral character, hand in hand with genuine self-management in health. In this context, the work of Juan Gandulfo, a physician and anarchist, in the management of the Worker Polyclinic of the Industrial Workers of the World (IWW) and its diffusion media "The sanitary page" must be emphasized. The aim of this paper is to review the history of particular initiatives in self management, complementing them with some biographical aspects of Dr. Gandulfo's life.
