'The expelled is the Other of others. Which is to say, he is other for the others, and the others are other for him. He himself is nothing more than the Others of him. In this manner, he is able to “identify”. His advent in exile allows the original natives to uncover that they are unable to “identify” without him. Because of this advent in exile, the “self ” is rent asunder, opening it up to others, to a being-with-others.'
