La metáfora de lo uno-múltiple: una (re-)conceptuación dialógica de la identidad personal (una crítica al reduccionismo “posmodernista”)

Abstract

In this article I want to correct the excesses and simplifications which postmodernist theories have introduced into the current conception of personal identity. I argue for a subject who transcends social determination (although I do not deny the idea of subjectification) and who is embodied, so that the question of the subject's unity (the unity of/in his or her identity) and can be examined without falling into the clichés of fragmented structure. I argue for the replacement of the notion of the plurality of identity with the more complex notion of plurality of/in identity.
