Testimonio, Subjetividad y lenguajes femeninos en contextos de violencia política en América Latina
2015
Resumen: En el marco del proyecto de investigacion Narrativa Testimonial, Politicas de la Memoria y Subjetividad en America Latina , el presente articulo lleva a cabo algunas reflexiones sobre un corpus documental basado en textos escritos por mujeres que hicieron parte de grupos de izquierda que optaron por la via armada entre los anos 60 y 90 del siglo pasado. Con ello se busca iluminar los modos como la violencia politica y el terrorismo de estado modularon la cultura politica en America Latina e incidieron en la configuracion de las subjetividades de quienes fueron actores directos o indirectos de dichos acontecimientos, al tiempo que se explora en dichas narrativas algunas de sus impli…
Decolonizing Othello in search of black feminist North American identities: Djanet Sears' Harlem duet and Toni Morrison's Desdemona
2017
<p>The plays <em>Harlem duet </em>(1997) by African Canadian playwright Djanet Sears and <em>Desdemona </em>(2012) by Toni Morrison signify upon European texts aiming to carve out a new definition of what it means to be black in North America. Therefore both texts make for interesting reading in the study of (black) identity construction within US and Canadian contexts for, by revising Shakespeare’s <em>Othello</em>, they rethink and rewrite a social and racial reality unrelentingly disrupted by difference and hybridity. Sears’ play establishes a specific reading of Canadianness in dialogue with African America to erect a possibility of healing and …
« Autonomy in the Dock: Oscar Wilde’s first trial »
2014
Les procès d’Oscar Wilde de 1895 ont donné lieu à de multiples interprétations qui soulignent en particulier comment ils ont permis la cristallisation d’une identité gaie. Ils méritent également d’être mis en relation avec le texte de Wilde « The Soul of Man under Socialism » (1891) qui propose une subjectivité fondée sur l’individualisme et l’autonomie personnelle. Ce projet qui a fort inquiété les juges et l’Establishment anglais n’est pas sans rapport avec les thèses de Cornélius Castoriadis sur l’autonomie dans la Grèce antique, référence que les deux auteurs partagent. The 1895 Wilde trials are usually seen as either the trial of non-normative sexualities or as enabling a definition of…
Shared experiencing, shared understandings: Intersubjectivity as a key phenomenon in drama education
2018
This article is a philosophical reflection on intersubjectivity in the context of drama education; it draws on the concept’s most recent neuroscientific basis as well as the perspectives of Merleau-Ponty, Buber and Husserl. Its purpose is to deepen our understanding of the mechanisms of interaction in learning processes in drama education. In the stream of interaction in drama, the central conditions are shared experiencing and shared understandings. Intersubjectivity encompasses both of these. This study views intersubjectivity as an innate capacity and a real phenomenon – one that is a key phenomenon in the interactions of drama education. peerReviewed
The moving self in life, art, and community mental health: 12 propositions
2010
I argue here for the primacy of movement (Sheets-Johnstone, 1999) in both the organisation of the self and in social relationships. This means that movement is not simply important because it offers all of us (including psychiatric patients) better physical fitness, but because it is fundamental to the organisation of the individual person and her social matrix. It is therefore not simply an adjunct to life, art, and mental health but also the core of all three spheres.
Subjetivación y Feminismo: Análisis de un manifiesto político
2004
The theme of this article is the the Italian feminist movement of the 1980s. That movement was characterised by political transformation and a crtitique of identity. The article takes as its point of departure the inaugural speech of the movement, the manifesto "Piu donne che uomini" (1983). The analysis that we present is inspired in the work of Michel Foucault. It aims to show to that the production of new feministic subjectivities, when fighting the symbolic dimension of masculine domination, has an intrinsically political character. In the 1980s, in the Italian context and particularly in the feminist movement, the rules of the political game set up by the events of 1968 materialized. T…

El management de las conductas socioemocionales. Una aproximación teórica y empírica desde el caso de los agentes de "contact centers"
2020
How is a specific type of emotion-related work conducts formed today? What principles guide these conducts and what effects do they have on those who work? The study of Contact Center agents allows us to understand how a set of personal qualities such as patience and good treatment of others, certain desires and personal impulses or even intimate sensations such as anguish or individual expectations have become managerialized emotions that end up modifying the inner attitudes of these agents. Within this framework, we propose a theoretical approach that integrates the work of Weber, Foucault and Elias, which invites us to reflect on a socio-emotional manner of leading one?s life (Lebensfu?h…
Otherness and common world : the ethical subject in instituted aid
2021
The conception of ethics in the sector of assistance to the most deprived and particularly vulnerable people is modelled on medical ethics. It is first and foremost a professional code of ethics developed for social workers. It thus obscures the ethical dimension of people who are marked by differences related to disabilities and precariousness and are in a situation of being helped. For them, a possible belonging to the common world must go through an integration of their own way of being ethical. Thus, strengthening the inclusive aim currently at work in the social assistance sector, must go through a work of redefinition of the ethics of aid in order to take into account the specificity …
Sospensioni del sé
2018
Rethinking metamorphosis as rebirth of the Self opens the possibility of conceiving the subjectivity according to its plasticity, as the new perspectives of the morphological and morphogenetic investigations suggest. The ontological trait of the plasticity of the subject shows us that the Self is a continuous metamorphic activity, which is properly an activity of individualization of the identity of the Self. Following its natural metamorphic way of being and searching for its identity, the Self is revealed to be a transindividual form of life, constituting in the relationship with other transindividual forms of life and their counter-intentionality.
