espanolEn este texto se desarrolla un acercamiento al problema de las formas de accion colectiva y de representacion que se pueden presentar como alternativas con potencial de transformacion de las condiciones sociales mas alla de la estructura ideologica del sistema capitalista. A partir de una confrontacion entre Cornelius Castoriadis y Slavoj Žižek con respecto a la posibilidad de autoinstitucion de la sociedad y la necesidad de vincular la multitud a una representacion unitaria, se analizan los dilemas concretos de la lucha revolucionaria a traves de las figuras de Lenin y Robespierre. Este analisis permite concluir que la irrupcion de la libertad de los colectivos en los eventos revolucionarios implica un tipo de violencia que impide determinar con certeza su direccion. Sin embargo, tal violencia tambien es la condicion que enmarca el acto revolucionario en una dimension etica, como una decision que posibilita la transformacion del imaginario. EnglishThis text develops an approach to the problem of the forms of collective action and representation that can be proposed as alternatives with potential to transform social conditions beyond the ideological structure of the capitalist system. The concrete dilemmas of the revolutionary struggle are analyzed through the figures of Lenin and Robespierre, after a discussion of the arguments of Cornelius Castoriadis and Slavoj Žižek on the possibility of self-institution of society and the need to link its multiplicity to a unitary representation. The paper concludes that the irruption of the collectives’ freedom in revolutionary events implies a type of violence whose direction is difficult to determine with certainty. However, this violence frames the revolutionary act in an ethical dimension, as a decision that enables the transformation of the imaginary.
