Psychodynamics of work and the seduction theory

What are the relationships between the malaise affecting the world of work today, and the Malaise in culture, analyzed by Freud (1930/2002). Patients apparently talk much more today of suffering at work than before. Is it necessary to mobilize specific theoretical references in order to listen to them? Beyond these issues, what we will take into considerations here is what psychoanalysis can therefore bring to the interpretation of data obtained in the field of clinical work. We discuss the forms of organizations of work - between what is prescribed and what actually takes place - and its implications for the scope of psychodynamics of work and mental health.
