espanolEn este articulo reviso las diversas elaboraciones del concepto de totalidad social que podemos encontrar en diferentes momentos de la obra del filosofo marxista Georg Lukacs y destaco las concepciones de la praxis de los agentes sociales asociadas a cada una de ellas. Comienzo por analizar este concepto en la obra del joven Lukacs, para luego presentar un radical cambio de postura entre las formulaciones que hallamos en Historia y conciencia de clase y Para una ontologia del ser social. Mi argumento es que este cambio de perspectiva se asocia a la necesidad teorica de posibilitar una practica subjetiva que no se encuentre indefectiblemente alienada, tal como parece desprenderse del modelo teorico de la obra lukacsiana de juventud. Finalmente concluyo que esta nueva concepcion de la totalidad social habilita un nuevo tipo de practica emancipatoria, alejada de los dogmatismos partidarios que caracterizaron a buena parte del socialismo del siglo XX. EnglishIn this paper I revisit the different elaborations of the concept of social totality that we can find through various moments of the work of the Marxist philosopher Georg Lukacs, focusing on the understanding of the praxis of social agents tied to each of them. I begin with the analysis of this concept in his youth works and then I highlight a radical change of view between the characterizations found in History and class consciousness and Ontology of social being. My argument is that this reconsideration is associated with the theoretical necessity of conceiving a subjective praxis that could avoid alienation, as it seems to occur in the theoretical model of Lukacs’ youth work. Finally, I conclude that this new conception of the social totality enables a new kind of emancipatory praxis, far from the party dogmatisms that typify a great part of the twentieth century socialism.
