Abstract
It is discussed in this paper the subjectivity issue from Vygotsky´s (1925) sociocultural perspective, considering new conceptual developments by Gonzalez (2013) as the focus of interest in this writing. On the bases of Subjective Sense and Subjective Configuration constructs the author explores a way of understanding how persons process ideas about the coherence of every day facts and experiences at work. With this purpose in mind are described several studies and the meaning of coherence there managed, as well as the effects of coherence and incoherence observed. A good understanding of coherence judgments is needed because the issue has been scarcely studied and the concept is on the basis of organizational coherence explanations. Organizational coherence is a necessary condition for organizations to survive and succeed, such as diverse economic, administrative, managerial, sociological and organizational studies have evidenced. This reflection begins with an exploration of the subjectivity concept, afterwards considers the concept of coherence in several analytical contexts in order to propose a way of understanding the coherence at work, something useful and necessary to win a better understanding of subjectivity at work. On the basis of this analysis a different way of understanding coherence in the organizational context is suggested.
