The notion of secrecy analyzed in terms of its plural reality

Journal Title: ESSACHESS - Journal for Communication Studies - Year 2013, Vol 5, Issue 2

Abstract

The concept of secret refers to an object of the world that simultaneously locks the events and the perception that one can have, protects them or even transform them. In this article, we attempt to analyze how the secret, by concealing all or part of an object of the world, opens on different semantic territories. In addition, it will be questioned the secret as a purveyor of a form of power acting on the groups or individuals who are connected with this form of communication.
