Inventando a minha subjetividade de idosa: uma abordagem complexa

the paper deals with affective-cognitive reflections that emerged from research on cognition in a complex approach throughout the life of the author. it is, then, a quick history of modernity in terms of the heavy consequences for humanity that entails creating fragmentations of all dimensions of reality, which would imply serious impediments to the construction of subjectivity / cognition. in view of the complexity, there are attempts in contemporary science that set a new paradigm in the sense of adopting a non-linear and non-deterministic logic. based on these considerations, the author thinks the elderly as a space for empowerment through policies for seniors mobilizing autonomy, self-experience and authorship that can provide the elderly reversal of entropy. the author justifies the use of first person in line with the complex epistemological position adopted, ie not separating subject and object, giving an account of the operations of the operator.
