Abstract

LEAL FERREIRA, Arthur Arruda et al. The Production of Subjectivities in a Net: Following the Trail of a Division of Applied Psychology. univ.humanist. [online]. 2013, n.76, pp.371-392. ISSN 0120-4807.

This paper seeks to expose the different modes of production of subjectivities engendered by clinical psychological practices and modes of translation and coordination between them. Such research is based on the conceptual Political Epistemology of Stengers and Despret and the Actor-Network Theory of Latour and Law. For these authors, scientific knowledge is produced not as a representation of reality through well-formed sentences, but as modes of articulation between researchers and authorities investigated. In general, these articulation modes can generate a recalcitrant or docility effect by the entities investigated. More specifically, we will accompany therapeutic techniques coming from different orientations on the way they are performed by the Division of Applied Psychology at the Federal University of Rio de Janeiro. For this, besides the description of the artifacts, the people, interns, the triage team and counselors were interviewed at the beginning and end of the therapy.

Keywords : Political Epistemology; Subjectivities Production; Division of Applied Psychology; Social psychology; Theory of knowledge; Subjectivity; Federal University of Rio de Janeiro; Applied Psychology.
