Hopefulness, recognition and trust
Pagès, Claire
Hopefulness, recognition and trust - 2022.
58
In this article, I propose to reflect on the basis of hopefulness in the social field, that is, on the hope of recognition – which Axel Honneth calls the teleological element of the moral conception implied by the concept of recognition. The loss of this hope of recognition, which resides in an ideal more than a reality, constitutes from the point of view of the psychodynamics of work one of the main factors in the discouragement of workers. When they lose this hope, they feel, as Christophe Dejours notes, “dismantled” (La Panne). In order to explore more deeply the psychosocial conditions of this hopefulness, John Furtos offers us valuable elements of reflection by identifying three forms of trust at the origin of mental health (trust in the future, trust in others and trust in oneself). Finally, it is in the research studies carried out by Laurence Cornu on trust within the pedagogical relationship that I think we can find resources to defend the importance today of the notion of hopefulness, in spite of philosophical critiques that have undermined its foundations. Her analyses enable us to better circumscribe, in its fragility, the form of hopefulness which I call with her trust, which clinical practice and theory cannot do without.
