Abstract

The dismantling of this social horizon linked to the social welfare state and the disciplinary-Fordist work has revealed the emergence of a precarious way of life (Butler, 2010; Lorey, 2016; Standing, 2013) linked to a registry of the emotional and the affective that becomes world in theneoliberal sensibility. In the following we are going to consider the text of Chronicles Alta Rotaciónof the Argentine writer Laura Meradi in views of making an approach that follows the own dynamics of the narrative matrices, the tunings and displacements at the level of the affective modulations. In effect, Alta Rotacióndeals with a displacement of figures, from the worker to the precarious, but also from sensitive and affective regimes, from effort and sacrifice towards dedication and enthusiasm as a new bodily vitality. Enthusiasm and optimism, vitality and predisposition, this particular affective register is not only an emotional demand of the labor universe, typical of human resources departments or contemporary entrepreneurship, but also is productive as a precept of widespread cruelty (Berlant , 2006).
