Summary/Abstract: This article presents the general contours of the notion of identity (sameness and difference, continuity and impermanence, identity processes), as well as one of the philosophical foundations for thinking about this notion (the Apeiron hypothesis). These clarifications on identity reveal, on the one hand, a disconnection of the notion with contemporary usage. On the other hand, these clarifications point towards a re- appropriation of identity in order to make possible thinking about the constitution and composition of an open, non-oppressive common notion, which is in tune with the concrete transformation of its conditions of existence.
