RIBEIRO, Rosilene  and  FUKS, Betty Bernardo. The private university culture in Brazil and its discontents: an interdisciplinary study, psychoanalysis, education and business. Trivium [online]. 2017, vol.9, n.1, pp. 91-102. ISSN 2176-4891.  http://dx.doi.org/10.18379/2176-4891.2017v1p.91.

This article builds an intersection among the fields of knowledge in education, management and psychoanalysis in order to approach issues observed at Brazilian private universities. Based on the standpoint that the elements of a rational instrumental culture pervade the work organizations of the current stage of the capitalist economic system, it was observed that when the professor alienates oneself from the teaching process and from the knowledge production, the work loses its substantive meaning. In order to confirm our conclusions, we seek to demonstrate the nefarious effects of the capitalist reasoning which in its attempt to put capital as the supreme value, tends to trivialize the presence of alterity and belittle the importance of ethics on the social relations.
