Abstract

The paper follows althusserian and lacanian legacy to show on the example of legal conception of insult how the subject is constituted on the cross-section of various institutions which in themselves are not adequate. The constituted subject thus also remains split and uncomplete. This conception of the constitution of the subject has consequences for the theory of ideology. Namely: the subject is interpelated into a specific ideology only when ideological fantasies help to articulate subject’s own unconscious desire as an answer to the subject’s demand for sense which the subject misinterprets as a question from the Other: “Che vuoi?”
