Abstract

In this paper I question whether the plea for depathologisation and the regaining of our expropriated subjectivity from its psy and neuro-colonization is, in fact, not itself enmeshed with the notion of some real core of the human being, and thus amenable to some or another Academic discipline and praxis. Critics of mainstream (neuro)psychology could unwittingly, then, join the strong but unacknowledged undercurrent in today{\textquoteleft}s neuropsydiscourses to restore the subject as a fully fleshed-out agent; one who is situated beyond pathology, beyond abnormal and normal. I juxtapose this observation with critical readings of an artistic project looking to revalue subjectivity in the aftermath of a mining disaster, and the popular Theory of Mind-approach. In conclusion, I argue that an understanding of the subject as caught between subjectivation and de-subjectivation (where subjectivity becomes a social and a political issue) could allow us to rethink the terms of normality and pathology.
