Περίληψη

This article engages in a dialogue with the postmodern project through the works of Jacques Derrida, Gilles Deleuze, and Félix Guattari. The author focuses on the conceptualization of "alterity" (the Other) and the resulting ethical implications found within two primary theoretical pillars: the philosophy of "becoming" and "difference" outside of Hegelian dialectics, and the opening of the self to the Other beyond theoretical or practical violence. By examining Derrida’s "différance" and Deleuze/Guattari’s "desiring-production," the paper explores an "asymmetric ethics" where the relationship with the Other is not based on symmetry or negation but on a radical openness to difference. The study concludes that this philosophical shift demands a reevaluation of social and political structures, advocating for a nomadic existence that resists the totalizing tendencies of modern metaphysics.
