Abstract

El artículo presenta los hallazgos de la primera etapa de un estudio de caso, sobre el placer y el sufrimiento en el trabajo, cuyo trabajo de terreno fue una observación participante en una sucursal de una cadena canadiense de distribución al detal. El propósito es poner a disposición de los estudiosos del análisis organizacional, del management y de la administración de personal algunas definiciones logradas a partir de ciertos recursos bibliográficos (teóricos y metodológicos) de la sociología clínica, la psicodinámica del trabajo y la sociología de las emociones. Se trata de las dimensiones social y técnica de la organización del trabajo y de una forma de alienación subjetiva actual. La principal premisa que puede presentarse, como conclusión, es que la organización actual del trabajo tiende a ser percibida por el trabajador como fuente potencial de amenazas y, sin saberlo, elige protegerse a partir de la alienación subjetiva.
