In our paper, \u201cPositive Psychology\u2019s Promise of Happiness: A New Form of Human Capital in Contemporary Neoliberal Governmentality\u201d (De La Fabi\u00e1n &amp; Stecher, 2017), we showed that the kind of transformative work on oneself fostered by positive psychology should be understood as a transcendence of the Calvinist work formula of deferred pleasure. Binkley argues that this is a reductionist hypothesis, which risks turning into a deterministic conception of the processes of subjectivation. We argue that while we share this concern, we do not believe that the Calvinist formula is the right one to call upon to avoid this problem. Our main hypothesis is that positive psychology has created a new game of truth, in which the normative frame of justification that used to give sense to any kind of self-transformative task has been radically changed.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":466,"template":"","class_list":["post-348","publicacion","type-publicacion","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","area-felicidad","area-gubernamentalidad-neoliberal","area-psicologia-positiva","area-realce-humano","area-trabajo-sobre-uno-mismo"],"acf":[],"book_type_thumbnail":false,"autor":[{"ID":24,"post_author":"1","post_date":"2019-04-25 14:55:06","post_date_gmt":"2019-04-25 14:55:06","post_content":"<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Miembro de las siguientes\u00a0 redes y asociaciones internacionales:\u00a0<\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">International Society of Psychoanalysis and Philosophy,\u00a0<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">ISPP (<\/span><a href=\"http:\/\/www.sipp-ispp.org\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">http:\/\/www.sipp-ispp.org\/<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">);\u00a0<\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Popular psychology self-help cultures and the happiness industry\u00a0<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">(<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/selfhelpculture.weebly.com\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">https:\/\/selfhelpculture.weebly.com\/<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">); <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">International Consortium of Critical Theory<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Programs<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> (ICCTP) (<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/criticaltheoryconsortium.org\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">https:\/\/criticaltheoryconsortium.org\/<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">).<\/span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Miembro del comit\u00e9 editorial de la revista oficial del ICCTP,\u00a0<\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Critical Times\u00a0<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">(Duke University Press).<\/span>","post_title":"Rodrigo de la Fabi\u00e1n","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"rodrigo-de-la-fabian","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2019-07-19 15:06:59","post_modified_gmt":"2019-07-19 15:06:59","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":10,"guid":"https:\/\/saberespsi.udp.cl\/cms\/?page_id=24","menu_order":3,"post_type":"page","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"}],"subtitle":"Theory & Psychology","ano":"2018","volume":"28(3), 411-417","issn":"","links":[{"name":"SAGE Journals","link":"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/10.1177\/0959354318772098"}],"file":false,"collapsible":false,"publicaciones_relacionadas":"","cat_name":null,"css":"background:url('https:\/\/saberespsi.udp.cl\/cms\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/encabezado-027.jpg');","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/saberespsi.udp.cl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/publicacion\/348","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/saberespsi.udp.cl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/publicacion"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/saberespsi.udp.cl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/publicacion"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/saberespsi.udp.cl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/466"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/saberespsi.udp.cl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=348"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
