Paradox of the corporactivity: the bus driver as a collective body1 1 Funding: Fundação de Amparo à Pesquisa do Espírito Santo (FAPES).

Abstract:

This essay proposes, through a theoretical critique, the development of the concept of corporactivity beyond the hegemonic representational sense of professional identification. To do so, it operates on the distinction between body and work organization, promoting an intercession between clinic of activity and schizoanalysis. It takes a paradox of activity of the urban bus driver, oscillating between politics of friendship and politics of control, between capital and unproductivity, between disunion and cooperation, to develop such problematic through the concrete situation of work. The support of the paradoxes of activity is affirmed as crucial in the composition of collective bodies of work.

Keywords:
body; drivers; work psychology; activity; schizoanalysis
