O lazer nas sociedades de controle

Abstract

Leaving of the concept Societies of Control, proposed but not totally developed by Michael Foucault, where the thesis of the continuous control of the body is contained, it was looked for to understand in that measured this control degree also influences the practices of Laze. This study intends essentially to accomplish the sketch of a characterization of Laze in these spaces for, in a second moment, problematizá-lo. The traveled itinerary was the following: Leaving of a contexture attempt through a report in language voluntarily prosaic that describes a glance on the urban center of Santa Maria-RS (trying to capture part of its own dynamics and some of its respective practices of Laze), we passed to the chapter a, that tries to place the reader with relationship to the nature and the purpose of the text (already shortly referred above). Soon after, in the chapter two, we looked for an approach here with some theoretical presuppositions treated metaforicamente as " lenses ", that is to say, instruments to enlarge our observation capacity and understanding of the phenomenon in subject. In the third and last chapter, already of ownership (relative) of those instruments, we accomplished an attempt of problematização of Laze, supported in the body notion while product of the effects of power corresponding to the Societies of Control. Word-key: Laze; Societies of Control; Power.
