Abstract [eng] This paper examines the transformation of the individual into politics in the political philosophy of Roberto Mangabeira Unger. It will be examined that the author understands the current politics as a naturalized and false necessity. In politics, a person is prevented from being a person, an attitude towards a person is invisible, that is, as threats, obstacles or tools. A proper concept of community should help a person to be in politics as a person as a follower of another's will, not as an obstacle. The principle of impersonalism, on which the doctrine is based, presupposes two different concepts of the person. Abstract, which is represented by a social role, and concrete, which is understood as a threat or obstacle. The aim is to explain the antinomy of the liberal concept and to justify that the liberal doctrine does not have a whole concept of the person. Liberal doctrine divides the understanding of the person into two parts, that is, into the public world determined by discourse and the private world of feelings. Organic groups help restore the understanding of the individual as one who can fulfill the will of another, rather than dominate or pose a threat. A person can not only be defined by prescriptive rules or social roles. However, the attitude towards a person can also be determined by emotions. The author uses emotions, which can be controlled by the mind to determine the attitude towards another. A person can see another vision not as a threat, but as a will-filler. However, conditions must be provided for this.
