Resumo: | In this article we review and analyze the book “Authentic Happiness – Use Positive Psychology to Reach Your Full Potential” by Martin E. P. Seligman. The intention of the analysis is to problematize the hegemonic discourse of positive psychology that is currently dominant. As a method, we use Michael Foucault's discourse analysis, in the search to find out what emerges as dominant in relation to the problem in question. We realize that the discourse on happiness is constructed in a punctual, pragmatic and inductive manner. It always starts from a place of the individual subject, from individual experiences, to build a pattern of being, which aims to individualize behaviors according to the results demonstrated by the author and his psychological theory. From our analysis, we understand that the psychology founded in favor of this discourse of positivity works within a utilitarian ethics, and sometimes acts as a reproducer of hegemonic patterns of neoliberal society. Keywords: Speech; Happiness; Positive Psychology; Neoliberalism; Subjectivity. |

En este artículo revisamos y analizamos el libro “Felicidad Auténtica – Use la Psicología Positiva para Alcanzar su Máximo Potencial” de Martin E. P. Seligman. La intención del análisis es problematizar el discurso hegemónico de la psicología positiva actualmente dominante. Como método, utilizamos el análisis del discurso de Michael Foucault, en la búsqueda de descubrir qué emerge como dominante en relación con el problema en cuestión. Nos damos cuenta de que el discurso sobre la felicidad se construye de manera puntual, pragmática e inductiva. Siempre se parte de un lugar del sujeto individual, de las experiencias individuales, para construir un patrón de ser, que pretende individualizar conductas de acuerdo a los resultados demostrados por el autor y su teoría psicológica. De nuestro análisis, entendemos que la psicología fundada a favor de este discurso de positividad funciona dentro de una ética utilitarista, y en ocasiones actúa como reproductora de patrones hegemónicos de la sociedad neoliberal. Palabras llave: Discurso; Felicidad; Psicologia POSITIVA; neoliberalismo; Subjetividad. Neste artigo resenhamos e analisamos o livro “Felicidade Autêntica – Use a Psicologia Positiva para alcançar todo seu potencial” de Martin E. P. Seligman. A intenção da análise é problematizar o discurso hegemônico da psicologia positiva que se funda como dominante na atualidade. Como método usamos a análise de discurso de Michael Foucault, na busca de averiguar o que emerge como dominante no que tange a problemática em questão. Percebemos que o discurso sobre felicidade é construído de modo pontual, pragmático e com caráter indutivo. Sempre se parte de um lugar do sujeito individual, de experiências individuais para construir um padrão de ser, que visa individualizar condutas em função dos resultados demonstrados pelo autor e por sua teoria psicológica. A partir de nossa análise entendemos que a psicologia fundada em prol desse discurso de positividade funciona dentro de uma ética utilitarista, e por vezes atua como uma reprodutora de padrões hegemônicos da sociedade neoliberal.Editora Unimontes2022-12-20info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdftext/htmlhttps://www.periodicos.unimontes.br/index.php/rds/article/view/571810.46551/issn2179-6807v28n2p183-203Revista Desenvolvimento Social; v. 28 n. 2 (2022): Trajetórias nas universidades: Experiências da lei de cotas, transformações políticas e epistemológicas; 183-2032179-68071982-8608reponame:Revista Desenvolvimento Social (Online)instname:Universidade Estadual de Montes Claros (UNIMONTES)instacron:UNIMONTESporhttps://www.periodicos.unimontes.br/index.php/rds/article/view/5718/6128https://www.periodicos.unimontes.br/index.php/rds/article/view/5718/6129Copyright (c) 2022 Carla Caetano, Leonardo Brandãohttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessCaetano, CarlaBrandão, Leonardo2023-04-20T23:19:23Zoai:ojs2.periodicos.unimontes.br:article/5718Revistahttps://www.periodicos.unimontes.br/index.php/rds/indexPUBhttps://www.periodicos.unimontes.br/index.php/rds/oairevista.desenvolvimento@unimontes.br2179-68071982-8608opendoar:2023-04-20T23:19:23Revista Desenvolvimento Social (Online) - Universidade Estadual de Montes Claros (UNIMONTES)false |
