Description
Summary:The study seeks to point out the ontological foundation of Vigotski’s works, indicating that his theoretical construct as a whole is centered upon the category of labor as the complex which originated man as a social being in accordance with the basic principles of Marxism. In this sense, it emphasizes Lukács’ ontological retrieve of Marx’s legacy, announcing, therefore, a new kind of ontology, which goes far beyond the metaphysical and idealistic tradition to assert the radically historical character of human essence. It is, then, recovered Vigotski’s intellectual trajectory, with emphasis on his central role in the process of constructing, alongside Luria and Leontiev, a Marxist psychology in the context of Russian’s revolutionary period opened up in 1917; and discussing the main difficulties in terms of reconstructing Vigotski’s work, in the context of Stalinism; as well as those related to the introduction of his thought in the Western world, particularly in the United States and Brazil. It denounces the essential mistakes operated by the neovigotskian movement, which, treating vigotskian categories, such as language, culture and interaction, apart from the Marxist principle of work, ends up by isolating Vigotski from the Marxian ontological realm, and, more precisely, from the socialist project. The study places greater emphasis upon the analysis of Thinking and Speach, also reviewing in a lesser level of details, other selected texts, such as The socialist transformation of man; Concrete psychology; and The historical meaning of crisis in Psychology, among others. It is finally reassured that, despite the explicit relevance attributed by Vigotski to the methodological dimension of Marxism, it is presupposed in the context of his work, the ontological core which founds Marx’s method.
