Administração e teorias das organizações contemporâneas: rumo a um humanismo radical crítico?

Resumos

O autor argumenta que os escritos tradicionais e os debates atuais sobre as novas idéias em administração e em teoria das organizações exigem um embasamento teórico adequado. Propõe então, que aqueles que questionam o futuro e a eficiência das organizações ocidentais precisam levar em consideração as contribuições do humanismo-radical neo-marxista mais do que privilegiar o costumeiro funcionalismoconsensual. Nesse sentido, os teóricos e práticos da administração deveriam integrar tais contribuições a fim de compreender a transformação necessária de um tipo taylorista de empregado passivo e obediente em um outro mais ativo e cooperativo. Assim, para alcançar uma renovação da administração, os pesquisadores devem adotar uma visão global da humanidade, para oferecer aos trabalhadores uma maior margem de controle sobre seus ambientes pessoais e sobre suas condições de trabalho.


The author argues that the present mainstream writings on, and debates about "new” ideas of management and theories of organization lack adequate theoretical assumptions and background. He proposes that those who question the future and efficiency of Western organizations need to rely more on a radical-humanistic and neo-Marxist conceptualization than on the functionalistic tradition. Therefore, management theorists and practitioners should integrate such a concept in order to better understand how to transform the passive-obedient Taylorist employee into an active-cooperative one. To achieve a truly renewed form of management, researchers must adopt a global view of humankind, in order to give workers a significant measure of control over their own environments and working conditions.

R ESUMO

O autor argumenta que os escritos tradicionais e os debates atuais sobre as novas idéias em administração e em teoria das organizações exigem um embasamento teórico adequado. Propõe então, que aqueles que questionam o futuro e a eficiência das organizações ocidentais precisam levar em consideração as contribuições do humanismo-radical neo-marxista mais do que privilegiar o costumeiro funcionalismoconsensual. Nesse sentido, os teóricos e práticos da administração deveriam integrar tais contribuições a fim de compreender a transformação necessária de um tipo taylorista de empregado passivo e obediente em um outro mais ativo e cooperativo. Assim, para alcançar uma renovação da administração, os pesquisadores devem adotar uma visão global da humanidade, para oferecer aos trabalhadores uma maior margem de controle sobre seus ambientes pessoais e sobre suas condições de trabalho.

A BSTRACT

The author argues that the present mainstream writings on, and debates about "new” ideas of management and theories of organization lack adequate theoretical assumptions and background. He proposes that those who question the future and efficiency of Western organizations need to rely more on a radical-humanistic and neo-Marxist conceptualization than on the functionalistic tradition. Therefore, management theorists and practitioners should integrate such a concept in order to better understand how to transform the passive-obedient Taylorist employee into an active-cooperative one. To achieve a truly renewed form of management, researchers must adopt a global view of humankind, in order to give workers a significant measure of control over their own environments and working conditions.
