Résumé : |
Putting into practice the new managerial demands of international mobility can generate important psycho-pathological problems which: i) cannot be warded off by the classical tools of social survey, and ii) imply studying the development of the nostalgia syndrome. Once this syndrome has been precisely defined, the genealogy and the semantic evolutions of the concept of nostalgia can be described, as I did in this study. In particular, it is shown that nostalgia is now often understood as an ambiguous affect, drawn as “bittersweet”. I think that it should be more exactly described as a two-component affect which can be both positive and negative, but also positive or negative – i.e., finally, normal or pathological. In this study, nostalgia’s various personal and environmental factors are analysed. From there, the terms and conditions to prevent nostalgia are examined, as a signal to companies that there is a resistance to expatriation. |
