Individual subjectivity, Psychogenesis, Sexuality, Anxiety, Ttransindividuality proofsAbstract
In this paper the concept of individual subjectivity in the theory of the individuation of Gilbert Simondon is analyzed from a triple horizon. On the one hand, the main features of biological individuality are reconstructed and the degree difference between the vital and the psychic is introduced. On the other hand, that difference is explained in terms of a reconfiguration of the affective and cognitive regime, establishing the problematic and self-problematic nature of the individual, and analyzing a series of psychogenetic elements relating the simondonian theory with the model of Jean Piaget. Finally, three topics ―sexuality, anxiety and “transindividuality proofs”― are analyzed as elements of psychosocial resolution of the intraindividual problems.
