If the
social persona is a mythical construction of the group, our individuation is a social
narrative constructed with some of the personae developed in the economic
actions, either of the present or the past. There is no free will because our psychological will, linked to the
basic emotion of vitality (the dopamine system that is in charge of stimulating
the individual in its search for whatever is needed to survive), is just like
the will of others, a will to power. This does not mean that I cannot choose among
different things, but the person who chooses is not more an individual than the
narratives that he or she identifies as himself or herself, and choice is
always conditioned by basic emotions and their complexification in the mythical
actions. Nowadays, the concept of freedom has basically meaning in juridical terms, as a
narrative that maximizes the diversity of a group, and therefore, its power
for survival. However, few forces are as important to human development as freedom. Freedom and the human project, still so precarious today, go hand in hand.
