Expulsion of the other

Expulsion of the other

Marjana Harcet
Abstract
Christianity and Islam are both notably marked by expulsion of the o/Other and still today we are heirs of this expulsion. Contrary to how its generally perceived Enlightenment has not by itself improved this alienation of the other, still more – the Enlightenment defended the most conservative views when we come to speak about women and it had a very hostile attitude toward believers that have become just another other because they believed in the Other. That is why we can say that Christianity, Islam and Enlightenment are three machismos’ that have forgot or denied their elementary o/Other. Today we can notice the resurgence of the question of the o/Other, but the question is if we will be able to overpass this tradition of expulsion as this tradition still defines us.
