English

Borrowed from Latin eo ipso, ablative form of id ipsum (“that (thing) itself”).[1]

- 1998, Slavoj Žižek, Looking Awry: An Introduction to Jacques Lacan through Popular Culture, ch. 1)
  When we demand an object from somebody, its “use value” (the fact that it serves to satisfy some of our needs) eo ipso becomes a form of expression of its “exchange value”; the object in question functions as an index of a network of intersubjective relations.'

Through or by that very act or quality; thereby
