I10-R300-article-296222020-07-27T15:44:36Z Who are you? Between Judith Butler and Edward Said ¿Quién eres? Entre Judith Butler y Edward Said Hilas, Sasha Marco de reconocimiento Orientalismo Cultura Recognition frames Orientalism Culture The following article is framed within the study of my doctoral thesis, in the Doctorate of Philosophy, on the recent formulation of Judith Butler around an ethics of cohabitation. One of the moments of this research is the discussion around the cultural norms that delimit the field of the human. I am referring to the “recognition frames” (Butler, 2010) that operate as a cut of the real, from which the category of human is differentially distributed. Although we are all vulnerable and need institutions and others to survive, not all of us are vulnerable in the same way. There are those who are not considered worthy lives and their life and death happen without globally awakening moral outrage at the violence they suffer. Considering current human cartography, the article sets out to investigate the logic of opposition between the West and the Middle East, where Arab-Muslim lives are considered less than human and therefore not meritorious. In this task, I propose a possible dialogue between the philosopher Edward Said and Judith Butler, recovering from the first his concept of “orientalism” (Said, 2008), important to the analysis of the cultural frames that delimit the border of the human. El siguiente artículo se enmarca en el estudio de mi tesis doctoral, en el Doctorado de Filosofía, sobre la formulación reciente de Judith Butler en torno a una ética de la cohabitación. Uno de los momentos de dicha investigación es la discusión en torno a las normas culturales que delimitan el campo de lo humano. Me refiero a los “marcos de reconocimiento” (Butler, 2010) que operan como recorte de lo real, a partir de los cuales la categoría de lo humano es distribuida diferencialmente. A pesar de que todos seamos vulnerables y necesitemos de instituciones y de otros para subsistir, no todos somos vulnerables del mismo modo. Hay quienes no son consideradas vidas dignas de cuidado y su vida y muerte sucede sin despertar globalmente indignación moral frente a la violencia que sufren. Teniendo en cuenta la cartografía actual de lo humano, el artículo se propone indagar entorno a la lógica de oposición entre Occidente y Oriente Medio en donde las vidas árabes-musulmanas son consideradas menos que humanas y por lo tanto no meritorias. En esta tarea, propongo un diálogo posible entre el filósofo Edward Said y Judith Butler, rescatando del primero su concepto de “orientalismo” (Said, 2008), caro al análisis de los marcos culturales que delimitan la frontera de lo humano.

The following article is framed within the study of my doctoral thesis, in the Doctorate of Philosophy, on the recent formulation of Judith Butler around an ethics of cohabitation. One of the moments of this research is the discussion around the cultural norms that delimit the field of the human. I am referring to the “recognition frames” (Butler, 2010) that operate as a cut of the real, from which the category of human is differentially distributed. Although we are all vulnerable and need institutions and others to survive, not all of us are vulnerable in the same way. There are those who are not considered worthy lives and their life and death happen without globally awakening moral outrage at the violence they suffer. Considering current human cartography, the article sets out to investigate the logic of opposition between the West and the Middle East, where Arab-Muslim lives are considered less than human and therefore not meritorious. In this task, I propose a possible dialogue between the philosopher Edward Said and Judith Butler, recovering from the first his concept of “orientalism” (Said, 2008), important to the analysis of the cultural frames that delimit the border of the human. |
