Alterity

[ôlˈterədē]

noun


From Wikipedia

In philosophy and anthropology, alterity refers to the state of being "other" or different (Latin alter). It describes the experience of encountering something or someone perceived as distinct from oneself or one's own group. The concept of alterity explores how we understand and relate to those who are seen as different, and how this "otherness" shapes identity and social relations. While rooted in academic discourse, the term is also increasingly used more broadly to describe anything outside of established norms or conventions.


Merriam-Webster:

Otherness, specifically: the quality or state of being radically alien to the conscious self or a particular cultural orientation.
