Subject matter
Theme 1
Communicational perspective of experience
The human being shaping the world: territory, trace, inscription, construction, mapping, division, differentiation
Experience as life horizon and as internalizing senses
Communication as inter-understanding and as interaction
Webs of life
Theme 2
Communicational perspective of the subjectivity
The communicational and intersubjective model does not deny the subject, or the self-narrating exercise of synthesis of the heterogeneous evades the identity question. It is to the language to found the meaning of ipseity, to articulate the needs and desires, to organize the experienced dispersion, and to tie action to moral principles of social responsibility. Reflection and self-reflection give to the experience of recognition a human structuring dimension. The correlation between the idea of individual choice freedom and the idea of collective responsibility is the chance of everyone assertion and reciprocity.
