Prolegômenos a Toda a Administrologia Possível: Administração - O Que é Isto?

Abstract

A ideia central deste texto é discutir a administração a partir do seguinte questionamento: administração, o que é isto? Para respondê-lo, partimos do método que denominamos como hipotético argumentativo, que obedece as fases a seguir elencadas. Primeiramente, partindo de uma posição crítica às respostas que vêm sendo dadas à pergunta, apresentamos uma tese como tema ou como posição pessoal dos autores, a saber: a administração é uma ação virtuosa. Em seguida, definimos uma pergunta problema e formulamos certas hipóteses de estudo e pesquisa, tomando como base a filosofia aristotélica, com as devidas reconsiderações autorais. Por fim, retomando sempre a tese central aqui defendida, procuramos construir as condições intelectuais de uma resposta futura, por meio de um ciclo de intentadas opiniões verossímeis: uma hermenêutica do não dito pelo dito; uma tentativa de pensar a administração em seu fundamento, ou uma ontologia da administração. Palavras-chave:Administração. Ação. Virtude. Ontologia. AbstractT he main idea of this text is to discuss management starting from the following questioning: administration, what is it? To answer to it, we initiate from the called argumentative hypothetical method, which obeys the phases enumerated next. Firstly, from a critical position to the answers given to the question, we present a thesis as theme or as authors' personal position, that is: administration is a virtuous action. Next, we define a question-problem and formulate certain study and research hypotheses, having as a base the Aristotelian philosophy. Finally, always resuming the central thesis here defended, we seek to build the intellectual conditions of a future answer, through a cycle of intended credible opinions: a hermeneutics of the unsaid for the said; an attempt to think administration in its core, or ontology of administration.

“…The author suggests the use of Gadamer's (2008) interpretation of phronesis in order to understand the bidirectional interrelation between politics and virtues. The approaches do not diverge in the definition of administration and corroborate the concept that was later on defended by Azevedo and Grave (2014). The concept of administration, in this case, involves politics, management, and leadership, and is defined as a virtuous action, to contribute to the good life (eudaimonia).…”

“…The type of knowledge in administration involving episteme, techne, and phronesis (Kavanagh, 2013) is discussed by Koike and Mattos (2001), who stated that phronesis as practical knowledge, needs to be revisited in the field of administration. Azevedo and Grave (2014) are also engaged in this discussion, even though indirectly when debating the essence of administrationdefined as a virtuous action performed through virtues. As observed in the study by Kavanagh (2013), such works recognize the importance of practical or prudent wisdom (Mattos, 2009).…”

Bernard Lonergan and Alberto Guerreiro Ramos: dialogues between the existential subject and the parenthetical man

“…Guerreiro Ramos could also be included in this classification because of his reflections on the human condition. An aspect in common in the works of Guerreiro Ramos, Lonergan and Voegelin is the inclusion of philosophical conversations and authors of the classical and medieval period, bringing this content to offer bases to reflect on the human condition and the virtuous action in current times, as pointed out by Azevedo and Grave (2014) referring to Guerreiro Ramos. Also, according to Guerreiro Ramos (1989), Voegelin strongly criticized the neglect of the content of classical works such as Plato's and Aristotle's.…”
