YAGUE, Pedro. León Rozitchner and the Problem of the Subject. A Philosophical-Political Reading of Freud. Tópicos (México) [online]. 2023, n.67, pp.307-344.  Epub Nov 13, 2023. ISSN 0188-6649.  https://doi.org/10.21555/top.v670.2285.

Since his first publications, the question of the historical constitution of the subject has been a central axis in the philosophy of the Argentinean thinker León Rozitchner (1924-2011). This paper analyzes how Rozitchner, through this issue, follows a path that goes from phenomenology to psychoanalysis, thus giving rise to a philosophical-political reading of Freud. In the first part, we reconstruct the theoretical continuities and ruptures that led him from Merleau-Ponty to Freud. Once this is done, we analyze the way in which, from his reading of Freud, Rozitchner notices the existence of two distances (one internal, the other external) in the historical constitution of the subject. By way of conclusion we point out the theoretical and political relevance of Rozitchner’s philosophy and some of the achievements and limits of his reading of Freud.
