Development paradigms, nature and subjectivation: the re-significances of the subject in the multiple crises of humanity

Abstract

The article investigates the process of human subjectivity construction from the hegemonic paradigms of development in order to denote how its fundaments can be understood together with the values that make up the ideal of human being and how these ideals are constructive in their relation with the environment. It is a descriptive theoretical study with a critical review of bibliography, which has as theoretical framework authors aligned to decolonial and postmodern thinking. The guiding line of this research is the recognition of a coevolution between human being and environment, which is felt in various forms of crisis experienced by humanity – economic, socio-environmental, development, modern subject. It is argued that such crises become tangible by the aggravation of socio-environmental conflicts that, at the same time, provoke new forms of r-existence and projects of human emancipation.
