La notion de souveraineté chez Georges Bataille (1897-1962) éclaire-t-elle les suicides au travail ?

Abstract: Georges Bataille?s conception of sovereignty implies an anthropological characteristic, that of being beyond utility and beyond necessity. Conversely, for Bataille, work transforms men into things and removes them from sovereignty. Is sovereignty destroyed by contemporary work? Are the rapidly increasing suicides at work a tragic outcome aimed at recovering lost intimacy? The purpose of this article is to ask whether the notion of sovereignty allows us to give an anthropological meaning to the main explanatory theories of work-related suicides.
