Acumulation and Subjectivation in Neoliberalism: State, Workfare and Management
Abstract
The following article takes stock of the main lines of criticism of neoliberalism, giving special importance to the transformations of the State, to work as a new mode of regulation and social benefit, and to managerial discourses, also known as new management or new theories of business management, which has been delineated in recent practices as the discourse that is underpinned by changes in the organization of work at the service of maximization of production. As it will be explained, on account of the hybrid and heterogeneous character of neoliberalism, it is necessary a conjunction of Marxist criticism of this phenomenon as a regime of accumulation and the foucauldian criticism of it as a mode of subjectivation or rationality form.
