Laburpena: The philosophical reflections of Cornelius Castoriadis (1922-1997) offer pathways for a fruitful understanding of the relations between psyche and politics. In his work Castoriadis argued that the two elements that define human beings are the capacity to establish social significations and radical imagination, which in turn implies that the study of politics and the social sphere must escape the identitary logic. From his analysis of the psyche and its first natural stratum, the psychic monad, Castoriadis highlights the danger that omnipotence represents for the democratic government of the citizen and of the polis (whether of the modern State or any other mode of political organization). Finally, this article examines Castoriadis� critique of the Western philosophical tradition based on the fact that it has hidden the role of the imagination in our political experiences
