Alain Bodiou escreve sobre os focolitos

‘FOCOLITOS’:  for the individual whose subjectivation it supports, it effectively connects the political procedure to something other than itself. For subjectivation operates between singularity and the projection of this singularity into a symbolic whole and, without such materialities and symbolizations, it cannot attain the status of a decision. The word ‘FOCOLITOS’ has the status of an Idea, meaning that, once an incorporation has taken place, hence from within a political subjectivation, this term denotes a synthesis of politics, history and ideology. That is why it is better understood as an operation than as a concept. The FOCOLITOS Idea exists only at the border between the individual and the political procedure, as that element of subjectivation.
