This paper brings upon the works of Søren Kierkegaard in order to demonstrate his
relevance for contemporary relations between the subject and the sociopolitical context. I
recall his Concept of Irony, in which he brings the Socratic irony as a concept, which will
be used as an method whereof depart all his later books and articles. One can say that
Kierkegaard’s whole life was a Socratic, ironical mission. From that point of view, we
may appropriate from his work the desire to construct a whole new subjectivity, since the
psychopolitical context has brought a great challenge for autonomous thinking.
