| Résumé : |
For Adriano Olivetti, an emblematic character of Italian entrepreneurship in the twentieth century, management means, on the one hand, rationalizing tasks as in Taylor’s model and on the other hand, is based on the principles of individuation that are widely inspired by Carl Gustav Jung’s analytic psychology. Taylor’s Scientific Management of Work can be described as a process of subjugation, which is represented in Michel Foucault’s perspective by the circular architecture of Bentham’s Panopticon. On the contrary, Jung’s individuation shows a process of liberation aiming at the autonomy of the subject that can be pictured by another type of circle, i.e. the mandala. Both types of circles refer to two types of central power: the first one is a directive power with a watchful eye, the second one is an introspective power with a contemplative gaze. While the directive power relies on a relation of sensitivity and causality, the efficiency of the introspective power consists in a “silent influence”, which implies the existence of a non-causal link, or a link of correspondence or “synchronicity” between individuals. Jung developed the concept of synchronicity between 1932 and 1958 in a joint work with Wolfgang Pauli, the Nobel Prize for Physics. Regarding non-causal phenomena that can be observed in subatomic physics as well as in psychology, the psychologist and the physicist agreed on the need for making a transcendent area of psyche, which links immediately the physical and the psychical sphere, i.e. interiority and exteriority. Therefore, the both personal and collective aspect that Jung et Pauli give to collective unconscious seems to create a model of centralised governance whose legitimacy and efficiency paradoxically rely on the virtue and the non-interference – whose Chinese paragon is the Yellow Emperor. |
