SUMMARY:

The present thesis aims to apprehend the movement of determinations that involve the current advance of conservatism and the "capture" of professional subjectivity in the scope of contemporary Social Work to the detriment of professional work according to the critical culture of the profession. To this end, we opted for dialectical historical materialism as a research method and prioritized as a research strategy the analysis and interpretation of bibliographic data related to this theme, based on the delimitation of 35 articles published in the annals of the XVI Brazilian Congress of Social Workers (CBAS) of the year 2019. For the analysis of the selected material, we delimited the following analytical categories: precariousness of work; professional work; ethical-political project and capital crisis. In a complementary way, we used fragments of the interviews carried out within the scope of my master's research, considering that certain issues needed to be explored in depth. The investigative path of this research, therefore, was outlined from the revisiting of interviews with social workers carried out in the years 2015/2016 as a starting point for our analyses. Our assumption is that every time conservatism advances in Brazilian society, it deepens fissures in the critical culture of Social Work, directly impacting the legitimacy, interpretation, incorporation and materiality of the ethical-political project. The research results made it possible to understand that this occurs from determinations that make up the professional work, allocated as old questions, but which assume new expressions in the current reality of expansion of ultraconservatism added to ultraneoliberalism, which are objectified as strategic outlets for capital in crisis. In addition, the deepening of the precariousness of work implied in specific ways of “capturing” professional subjectivity, through some particularities in the field of work of social workers, which were possible to identify and address: difficulties in understanding the relationship between theory and practice; fraying of the critical culture in favor of the real subsumption of professional demands to institutional demands; expansion of conservative tendencies on the ethical-political conception of the profession, which, ultimately, highlights the impacts of this conjuncture on the dimensions of the profession: theoretical-methodological, technical-operative and ethical-political. We have, therefore, an atmosphere of tension in the dispute for the social direction of the professional answers, which reflect the aggravation of the social question, the subjective difficulties of elaborating the socio-historical critique of capitalist social relations and the implications of conservatism and the crisis of capital in organization and recognition of the rights of the working class. But, if we identify that professional subjectivity is not a dome indifferent to the time of material and ideological decay, it is also not something uniform. In the confrontation between professional projects, subjectivities captured by the dominant logic and ethos and subjectivities that participate and strengthen resistance processes coexist. The ongoing regressive trend poses daily challenges to the critical culture of Brazilian Social Work in line with the defense of the economic, political and cultural interests of the working class.
