What I could develop after, in the book The Subject, is that identity defines itself in two ways. The first one is subjective. in other words, "I", and, when I say "I", nobody can say "I" instead of me.
It is a irreducible form. But the second is community related. It's the belonging to a community.
On traditional societies, we define ourselves as "son of", by affiliation, but there I define myself by my surname and define myself by a first name, but that a grandfather can be used. My first name isn't unique. but "I" is unique.
So, the subjectivity, let's say, the identity defines itself in a way: the irreducible "I", singular, which nobody can share, and, on the other hand, a community, family, nation, religion, etc. And I believe that, in my case, then, this reinforced my consciousness of the uniqueness and multiplicity of my identity, and that identity isn't something simple, it is something complex. What I did on the book's trajectory was to begin by a method for complex knowledge, so that knowledge would be able to confront complexity and, still on the way it isn't just complex knowledge, it's the complex thought.
In other words, the complex thought uses knowledge that are complex, but thought it's the entirety of a conception related to the world, life, the others, to itself, etc. And the work of the method is part of the complexity challenge. to conduct to complex thought through all these episodes.
