Abstract

The analytical queer commonly related to gender studies is a recent conceptual approach. Thus, this article aims primarily to bring out this little explored perspective on the critical analysis of the organizational field. The main concepts and principles related to the ideas contained in queer thought are presented, and the main differences between the analytical queer studies and modernist studies about gender are discussed. The analytical queer is based on Foucault concepts about post-identity and fragmentation that substitutes the hegemonic thinking of identity/binary in sexuality and gender studies, this post-identity vision is essential for the development of resistance and development of organizational local practices and may promote an action and intervention in the face of oppressive practices directed not only sexuality but also to other forms of oppression in the workplace. We conclude that the emancipation of the hegemonic practice of contemporary power lies in the post-identity and non-binary world as a possible contribution to the construction of a new social reality in organizations, a reality which can combat the bio-power related devices not only about sexuality, but also to other power devices.
