RESUMO

Charles Taylor develops his conceptions about the problem of human actions around the identity problem. For the present work, the basic question made was to know if the argumentative framework of Taylor, sustained by the expressivity theories, can support conceptually the thesis that the moral agents act driven not by the subjects selfrationality, but by the significative moral feelings that they wish to carry through under the form of good in the political space. This way, our thesis proposal was to analyze to what extent Taylor s theories supply the basis for the construction of concepts which provide an opening for the renovation of the political practices in current societies, aiming, in this way, at the accomplishment of human freedom by the means of its diverse forms of expression. Thus, what we did in the first place, throughout the six chapters which com pose the work, was to propose a way to systemize the chaining of the basic points of Taylor s theory, such as expression, action, evaluation, good, self, and political and public space, with the objective of analyzing the ontological construction of the identity of the human agent. The second concem focused on the problem of relationship between identity and the positionings of the agents in the public space. Finally, our intention was to show that Taylor s theory of recognition politics protects the expressive freedom of the individuais without compromising at the same time the universal forms of the public life
