TRANSLATION: THE RHYTHMANALITIC PROJECT

Abstract

This essay puts forward the concept of rhythmanalysis as a part of the study of everyday life. Such a concept is set up not only in sociological terms, but in physico-biological terms as well. Thus, the notion of rhythm permits apprehending the interaction of the different realms that are components of our natural and psycho-social world vis-à-vis the capitalist economy. As a matter of fact, the concept of rhythm is here assumed as a total phenomenon,
which implies an interdisciplinary research. Finally, with this translation, we intend to fill the existing gap, around this notion, in the social sciences developed in Latin America.
