Meaning and Significance of work: a review of articles published in journals associated with the Scientific Periodicals Electronic Library
Main Article Content
Abstract
Working conceptions result from an historical creation process in which development and diffusion are concomitant with the evolution of modes and relations of production, the organization of society as a whole and the forms of human knowledge. In this sense, considering changes associated with work throughout history, this article aims to examine how current studies by Brazilian researchers focus on the meaning and significance of work, through the analysis of articles related to these topics in major administration journals in Brazil. The articles were selected by their focus on work as a subject, and being published in journals associated with the Scientific Electronic Library Periodicals (SPELL). Fifteen articles were identified on this topic in the period 2008 to 2015, which were then analyzed based on content analysis. The results suggest that work continues to be a relevant study topic, since it is one of the fundamental values of the human being and still plays an important role in self-actualization and subjectivity as well as contributing to the development of identity.
