Subjectivation and social psychology: dualism in question

This essay begins with a brief presentation of two social psychology inheritance. The first one refers to the subject-object dualism that encroached on social science descendent from the paradigm of modern science. The second one refers to the dualism individual-collectivity present in the rising of modern psychology. The mismatches of both dualism are bound to deal with complex social realities and in order to weaken them the concepts of subjectification and ryzoma from Deleuze and Guattari are brought up. Beyond the opposites subject-object and individual-collectivity, we indicate for alternatives from a much more plural and complex perspective of reality.

subject-object; individual-collectivity; subjectification; ryzoma
