Uma reflexão sobre processos de identidade vividos durante a reestruturação da CELSP-ULBRA no período de 2008/2 a 2014/1

Abstract

This study reflects on the identity processes experienced during the restructuring of CELSP-ULBRA in the period from 2/2008 to 1/2014. News published by the media, reports and interviews with individuals from the institution regarding the crisis that took place are used to try and understand the identity processes that these people underwent. Starting off with a brief historical overview of the institution and the crisis, the study then examines external and internal coercion experienced during the period and relationships of trust and solidarity among individuals, in addition to focusing on mistrust, as a factor that heightened the complexity of the relationships between people, linking to this the idea of instrumental or significant support for the institutional project. Following this, it deals with charismatic leadership as opposed to normal leadership based on statutes during the management transition of the institution and how individuals viewed this change. In the final section, besides reflecting on the identity crisis, the study also addresses the issue of the relationship between I-other and projects, in the sense that human beings are active conscious beings, in order to demonstrate that they are always in relationship with other individuals and that identity processes always occur, therefore, in a relational manner. The theoretical framework is based on important authors such as Max Weber, Norbert Elias, José Ivo Follmann, Nicklas Luhmann, Alberto Melucci and Gilberto Velho, among others.
