Resumo: | This article reflects on the connections that can be established between the characterization that Deleuze and Guattari make of the “civilized capitalist machine” in their Anti-Oedipus and Walter Benjamin’s analyses of the “capitalist religious structure” in his fragment entitled Capitalism as religion, especially with regard to the concept of guilt. As can be seen, what seems to be different in Benjamin’s thought compared to the Deleuze-Guattarian approach is the fact that the German philosopher initially presents capitalism as having an intrinsically religious nature – capitalism is a religion in itself. This aspect does not seem to find similarities with the Deleuze-Guattarian conception of the “civilized capitalist machine,” although the latter admits the “divine character of capital.” Religion, for Deleuze and Guattari, has the clear role of helping in the repression and shaping of human desire. |

Como puede verse, lo que parece diferente en el pensamiento de Benjamin frente al enfoque de Deleuze y Guattari es el hecho de que el filósofo alemán presenta inicialmente el capitalismo con una naturaleza intrínsecamente religiosa, es decir, el capitalismo sería una religión en sí mismo. Este aspecto parece no encontrar similitudes en la concepción deleuze-guattariana de la “máquina capitalista civilizada”, aunque esta última admite el “carácter divino del capital”. La religión, para Deleuze y Guattari, tendría un papel claro de ayuda en la represión y formación del deseo humano.O objetivo deste artigo consistiu em refletir acerca das conexões que podem ser estabelecidas entre a caracterização que Deleuze e Guattari fazem da “máquina capitalista civilizada” em seu O anti-Édipo e as análises que Walter Benjamin fez da “estrutura religiosa capitalista” no seu fragmento intitulado O capitalismo como religião, especialmente no que diz respeito à ideia de culpa. Como pôde ser observado, o que parece ser distinto no pensamento Benjaminiano em comparação com a abordagem Deleuze-Guattariana é o fato de que o filósofo alemão apresenta, inicialmente, o capitalismo como tendo uma natureza instrinsecamente religiosa, ou seja, o capitalismo seria uma religião em si. Esse aspecto parece não encontrar aproximações com a concepção Deleuze-Guattariana da “máquina capitalista civilizada”, embora essa última admita o caráter “divino do capital”. A religião, para Deleuze e Guattari, teria uma clara função de auxílio na repressão e na modelagem do desejo humano.Escola Brasileira de Administração Pública e de Empresas da Fundação Getulio Vargas2023-08-30info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.fgv.br/cadernosebape/article/view/8893010.1590/1679-395120220166Cadernos EBAPE.BR; Vol. 21 No. 4 (2023); e2022-0166Cadernos EBAPE.BR; Vol. 21 Núm. 4 (2023); e2022-0166Cadernos EBAPE.BR; v. 21 n. 4 (2023); e2022-01661679-3951reponame:Cadernos EBAPE.BRinstname:Fundação Getulio Vargas (FGV)instacron:FGVporenghttps://periodicos.fgv.br/cadernosebape/article/view/88930/84114https://periodicos.fgv.br/cadernosebape/article/view/88930/84131https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessEnoque, Alessandro Gomes2023-10-30T17:00:18Zoai:ojs.periodicos.fgv.br:article/88930Revistahttps://periodicos.fgv.br/cadernosebapehttps://periodicos.fgv.br/cadernosebape/oaicadernosebape@fgv.br||cadernosebape@fgv.br1679-39511679-3951opendoar:2024-05-13T10:00:33.399049Cadernos EBAPE.BR - Fundação Getulio Vargas (FGV)true |
