The couple "philosophy of the concept" and "of the subject" distinguishes contemporary positions regarding philosophical fundamentation. The first understands the subject as an effect, and then implies a radical transformation of the philosophical task. As Lecourt has shown, Wittgenstein's Tractatus attacks the conception of philosophy as a discourse of fundamentation, assuming that this discourse produces first a break (between thought and being) and then tries to fit it through a discourse that guarantees the contact between the two fields previously instituted by the break. Absence of doubts concerning the meaning of propositions sets the Tractatus in the path of a regressive reasoning that not result in a transcendental argument because of the thesis on the impossibility of meta-language. The Philosophical investigations realized that this attack was still captive of one philosophical object (meaning) and try to eliminate it showing how it destroys itself when it enters in touch with rough practice of language. The absence of doubts is not anymore a sign of a fundamental semantic "knowledge", but a constitutive element of the practice of the language-games, functioning as a requirement imposed over individuals in order to obtain and keep their condition of speakers, a position which is close to the conception of ideology developed by Althusser. We conclude showing some limitations of Wittgenstein's thought the category of philosophy of the concept allows us recognize.
