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.
