Cet ouvrage presente les questions posees par les relations entre l'individu et la societe, a partir d'un objet particulier : l'identite individuelle. Il s'agit de montrer comment l'identite individuelle ne peut se penser en dehors de differents processus sociaux qui cadrent la facon dont les individus peuvent se definir et se presenter aux autres. Les individus ne sont-ils pas le produit des societes auxquelles ils appartiennent, au point que ce que l'on considere comme individuel serait avant tout social ? Dire je serait-il pas dire nous ? Pour le demontrer, l'ouvrage analyse cinq dimensions de la presentation de soi en societe : le nom, le corps, le sexe, la langue et la profession. Il montre que ce qui parait comme le plus singulier, le plus specifique, voire le plus naturel et spontane de l'identite individuelle, est a comprendre comme le produit de differents cadrages ou encadrements sociaux. Par ailleurs, il souligne les jeux qui restent possibles a l'individu pour negocier son identite et la faire valoir socialement..

This book purports to devise a pattern of the self that accounts for the role that change and identity play in self-shaping. It focuses on the process through which we discover, know and shape ourselves and wonder whether there is a core of our individuality and how we should account for it. The core is described along with its range of possible variations and its constraints. This volume provides arguments on how individual essence – far from being something monolithic – is inherently dynamic. The text delves into the link between change and identity in self-shaping, arguably the fundamental issue of personal individuality. Different theories and standpoints are addressed and scrutinized. Descriptive phenomenology will enter along with Max Scheler’s stance on axiology, as well as the keystones that account for self-shaping. This book appeals to students and researchers working on the implications of phenomenology for self identification and personal individuality.
