The subject and the social link of Jacques Lacan as a way to think modernity out of the modern

Abstract

The following paper aims to articulate and tackle, from a theoretical perspective, Jacques Lacan’s understanding of what has been called subject of the subconscious within the social ties. In regards to this matter, it is worth mentioning that an intention of this reflection is to approach to the idea of the subject from the modern perspective and its subversion from psychoanalysis considering the ideas of language and signifier. Finally, some thought will be given to the idea of the position of the split subject within the structure of the social ties, which Lacan will later call “a” little object within the everyday social relationships in the different discourses.
