Abstract

Analyze the work in the context of the end of the twentieth century and the beginning of the twenty-first century represents the idea about multiplicity, multiple causality and transversality. It is a complex phenomenon, increasingly multifaceted and heterogeneous. To understand that, requires making choices and asking central issues that can advance in construction of knowledge in the area. The structural analysis of the "strategic organizations" and the relationships that are established in this field, is central to our discussion, considerating that this model of strategic management is one of the main tools of monopoly-finance capitalism. The strategical organizations develops politicians methods of administration in distance (emotional management of psychic capturation), extends an ideology, a religion of the company and thus get a faithful adherence of its members, through the influence of these unconscious structures of personality. The analysis of labor relations in the game of poker - the ways of life developed in and through it - as well as their malaises becomes promising if glimpsed the analytical lens of political management of the strategic organizations, since both show as social phenomena with subjective processes that allow characteristic features of a psychic reading, political, ethical, anthropological and also makes up our society. The theoretical framework of the research will be Psychoanalysis and Social Psychology. Data collection will consist by interviews and participant observation. The individual interviews will be encompass six professional poker players in order to elucidate the points which include the analysis proposed by the research objectives.
