(The Cynicism as ideological practice

Abstract

In this paper, we try to articulate some thoughts on what we have called previously a disengaged position, or a parody subjectivity, or, to be more direct, a cynical subjective engagement. What interests us here is to think contemporary subjectivation processes: we invest in the subtle line that distinguishes cynicism as a practice of resistance to the power from cynicism while practice aligned to the power to undo any critical weapon, as it already incorporates the very criticism that could be made.KEY-WORDS: Discourse Analysis. Cynicism;.Ideology. Unconscious.Procuramos articular neste artigo algumas considerações sobre o que chamamos de uma tomada de posição desengajada, ou de uma subjetivação parodiada, ou, para sermos mais diretos, um engajamento subjetivo de ordem cínica. Interessa-nos aqui pensar os processos de subjetivação contemporâneos: investir na sutileza que distingue o cinismo enquanto prática de resistência ao poder do cinismo enquanto prática provinda do poder para desfazer qualquer arma crítica, uma vez que já incorpora a própria crítica que poderia ser feita.PALAVRAS-CHAVE: Análise de Discurso. Cinismo. Ideologia. Inconsciente.
