Analysing the Destructive and Constructive Roles of Sexuality in Organizations within Eros and Play

Öz

Within the Logos logic, mainstream organization studies see sexuality as a force of destructive which should be eliminated from the organizations. However, organizations cannot be totally desexualized. In every organization diverse sexualities are expressed. The relation of sexuality and Eros is controversial in social theory. Although, Eros depends on sexuality, Eros can be conceptualized as constructive within the qualitative and quantitative transformation of sexuality. This study analyses the relations of Eros, play and sexuality within their roles as “destructive” and “constructive” in organizations

Örgütlerde Cinselliğin Düzen Bozucu ve Düzen Kurucu Rolünün Eros ve Oyun Açısından İncelenmesi

Öz

Ana akım örgüt yaklaşımları, Logos mantığı kapsamında, cinselliği düzen bozucu bir güç olarak görerek örgütlerden yok etmeye çalışmıştır. Buna karşın, cinsellik örgütlerden tamamen yok edilemez. Her örgütte çeşitli cinsellikler ifade edilmektedir. Cinsellik ve Eros bağı sosyal teoride tartışmalı bir konudur. Eros, cinselliğin nitel ve nicel dönüşümü olarak düzen kurucu olabilmektedir. Bu çalışma örgütlerde Eros, oyun ve cinsellik ilişkilerini “düzen bozucu” ve düzen kurucu” işlevleri çerçevesinde incelemiştir

Anahtar Kelimeler

• Örgütlerde cinsellik, Eros, Marcuse, oyun
