AEDO HENRIQUEZ, Andrés. Unpacking personal identities in morphogenetic realism: ego's forms, substantial reflexivity and life's projects. Estud. sociol [online]. 2017, vol.35, n.104, pp.407-428. ISSN 2448-6442.  https://doi.org/10.24201/es.2017v35n104.1487.

Ultimate concerns have emerged in the work of Margaret Archer as a core element of the agents' projects, as the basis to understand the world and generate reflexivity to solve the dilemmas that society presents. However, the theory of concerns has the problem of not being sufficiently unpacked, because it fails to account for the contents from which individuals' personal identities generate substantial reflexivity to design projects. In the article I show how, through a critique of Archer's theory of personal identity, we can derive a way to understand personal identities from a practical and experiential link with social structure, generating a different path to understand agents' reflexivity and its relevance for personal projects through the notion of "ego's forms" of personal identity.

Palabras llave : social realism; personal identity; reflexivity substantive; life's projects.
