Summary/Abstract: In this article I have addressed the issue of unconscious culpability in the context of interpersonal changes. Social constraints, regardless of their justification, are perceived as a prohibition and reinstate the Ego in an inferiority relationship with an external Superego. This reactivates the old prohibitions of the subject's Ego during childhood which makes the feeling of culpability active again, even if it has been repressed. Understanding the relationship between culpability and Superego is essential to understand how the human subject responds to such social changes. The way in which external reality is perceived and experienced by the human subject depends on its ability to symbolize. The way in which the subject signifies external reality also influences how it manages to satisfy its own wishes.
