Résumé : |
Shame is a complex feeling which is situated at the join between the registers of narcissism, relations with
others and the relationship towards social standards. The article presents the elements of problematics to identify
the different facets : shame arises from the assertion of the subject in relation to others and himself ; it is at the
base of social links ; it is particularly active when social identity is marked by belonging to a stigmatized group.
In a society that advocates excellence and individual success, shame intervenes in the process of idendity construction as a factor of stimulation and inhibition. The analysis of the story of a brillant executive, of modest origins, who finds himself out of work after being made redundant, illustrates the complex and contradictory interplay of links between shame, the subject and identity. |
