Though, some concepts stay current and request an analysis of his meaning. The objective of this paper is presents some considerations concerning the mass concepts and identity. For so much, we bring the author’s contributions as: Ciampa, Bauman, Hall, Laclau, Negri & Hardt and Virno, that have been discussing, rebuilting and rethoughting these concepts. Finally, the text intends to present the possibility of work starting from the crowd concepts and identity as metamorphosis.
