REALITY AND ITS CONCEPT: COMMENTS ON THE CRITIQUE OF THE “KIDNAPPING OF SUBJECTIVITY’

ABSTRACT

This article consists in a commentary about the critique of the concept of kidnapping of subjectivity by Deize Luiza Ferraz in "Kidnapping of subjectivity: revisiting the concept and capturing the real." In this article I argument on the defense of the concept of kidnapping and control of subjectivity just in what this concept is essential, considering the critique of Ferraz. Especially because I understand that the purpose of the concepts of control and of kidnapping of subjectivity was exactly the first "capture of the real" in its immediate dimension, which introduced me to the first observation (in a precarious approach) in its appearance, to develop it beyond its pseudoconcreticity. I do this commentary from two issues: (i) concepts are developed as the reality changes historically and as the knowledge about the object deepens with the evolution of Science: (ii) all research should contain the condition of to clarify, innovate, add, surprise, provoke and transform.
