O ideal do eu é o eu ideal na sociedade individualizada

Abstract

This work aims to study, according to the psychoanalysis referential, the psychic process that is subordinate to the logic of individualization.To that end, from the sociological contribution of Bauman, it´s possible to establish the individualization as an omission process of systemic order of contradictions, attributing them to the inadequacy of the individual devoid of ways for political participation and public and collective cultural production, aimed to struggle a lonely fight. The hidden individualization reinforces the impotence of the subject and the demobilization of society, weakening the ties that bind the individual choices on projects and collective actions. In order to reflect on this question, the hypothesis that the ideal self is the self ideal in the individualized society was raised. In general, it was pointed out that the individualization process invests in establish as the subject of conformation model of the ideal self and not the ideal of the self.To develop this hypothesis, the concepts were approached in Self ideal and ideal of Self, especially in Freudian theory. Thereby, it is achievable to clarify the possible relations between the individualization process and its appeal to primitive intrapsychic formation signed in woven narcissistic ideal of omnipotence on the model of infantile narcissism (self ideal) to the detriment of identification with other (ideal self), especially with the founding ideals and maintainers of the community. In a second step, guided by laplancheano reference, it was defended that psychoanalysis can provide elements for the deconstruction of the discourse that underlies the process of individualization, supporting, first of all, the crucial importance of otherness in the constitution of the subject, which can point in addition to the genesis of the indispensability of the other dimension of social condition ballast.
