RESUMO

This research investigates, from the approach of multiculturalism , in Charles Taylor, the identity of the subject in the contemporary social tensions. Two works serve as theoretical basis: Sources of the Self: The Making of the Modern Identity and Multiculturalism. The bottom line of the present work is: who and what is the multicultural identity of the subject, considering the tensions by the recognition of the differences in the contemporary societies. The new forms of coexistence in the political field propitiate the emergence of new democratic political practices, expressed in the tensions between liberals and communitarians. Charles Taylor, usually identified with the communitarian party, advocates a peculiar positioning, that reflects more of the consequences of his philosophical anthropology through its moral anthology, than party militancy. However, in order to better explicit the new forms of coexistence in the political field, a contemporary society characterization is undertaken, highlighting the emergence conditions of tensions in democratic political practices: the mythical construction of the national identity and globalization. And, consequently, from the Taylorist philosophical anthropology, a proposal of education for authenticity can be outlined, aiming to enhance and distinguish the role of education in the formation of the subject and also of his identity.
