Resumo: We understand the potential problems in discussing subjectivities from the writings of such different thinkers like Foucault and Winnicott. However, in this study, the aim is to provide a possible Winnicottian counterpoint to the analyzes carried out by Foucault regarding subjectivity in neoliberal rationality. We propose a reflection about the constitution of subjectivity in neoliberal political rationality. As we have seen, it builds individuals psychically focused on a certain level of individualism to the detriment of ethics and otherness. After a discussion on the dynamics of human capital formation, as presented by Foucault, and the introduction of the fundamental notions about this specific constitution of subjectivity, we carry out a counterpoint. We will introduce the elementary points of Winnicott's theory of maturation to think about possible psychic consequences that neoliberal rationality, producing subjects focused on the competition, imposes on these subjective structures.

Nossa proposta é pensar a constituição da subjetividade na racionalidade política neoliberal, que conforme verificamos, constrói indivíduos psiquicamente voltados para certo individualismo em detrimento da ética e da alteridade. Após uma discussão sobre a dinâmica da formação do capital humano, conforme apresentado por Foucault, e da apresentação das noções fundamentais acerca dessa constituição específica da subjetividade, realizamos um contraponto apresentando os pontos fundamentais da teoria do amadurecimento de Winnicott para pensar a respeito de possíveis consequências psíquicas que a racionalidade neoliberal, produtora de sujeitos voltados para a competição, impõe a essas estruturas subjetivas.Universidade Federal do Recôncavo da Bahia2021-06-02info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionPeer-ReviewedEvaluados por los paresAvaliados pelos paresapplication/pdfhttp://www3.ufrb.edu.br/seer/index.php/griot/article/view/237010.31977/grirfi.v21i2.2370Griot : Revista de Filosofia; v. 21 n. 2 (2021); 115-1312178-1036reponame:Griot : Revista de Filosofiainstname:Universidade Federal do Recôncavo na Bahia (UFRB)instacron:UFRBporhttp://www3.ufrb.edu.br/seer/index.php/griot/article/view/2370/1350Copyright (c) 2021 Flávia Andrade Almeida, Felipe Sampaio de Freitashttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessAndrade Almeida, FláviaSampaio de Freitas, Felipe 2021-06-11T13:38:26Zoai:seer.www.ufrb.edu.br:article/2370Revistahttp://www.ufrb.edu.br/griot/PUBhttp://www3.ufrb.edu.br/seer/index.php/griot/oai||griotrevista@gmail.com2178-10362178-1036opendoar:2021-06-11T13:38:26Griot : Revista de Filosofia - Universidade Federal do Recôncavo na Bahia (UFRB)false
