«Em Busca da Identidade» is the philosophical essay by José Gil, published by Relógio D'Água in paperback (64 pages, in Portuguese).
José Gil analyses Portuguese identity as a territory of subjectivity in a context of globalisation, economic crisis and hegemony of the Socialist Party. Individual processes of subjectivation clash with collective frameworks. He also studies «chico-espertismo» as a cross-cutting phenomenon and the official discourse of irreversible modernisation.
The subtitle «o desnorte» appears on the cover alongside the title; the work was published in 2009.
For readers of political philosophy and sociology of identity, especially those studying contemporary Portuguese society.
Gil Joseph Wolman was a French artist. His work encompassed painting, poetry and film-making. He was a member of Isidore Isou's avant garde Letterist movement in the early 1950s, then becoming a central figure in the Letterist International, the group which would subsequently develop into the Situationist International.
