	9	+**Our alterity with the other is undecidable ~-~-- we can’t know what the other wills since their perspective is epistemically inaccessible. There’s always the capacity for us to misunderstand the other ~-~-- any account of them undermines how they view themselves. YOUNG ’97:**

	15	+**Precariousness and our vulnerability to the other frames ethics ~-~-- it conditions how we enter vulnerable ethical relations. This reaffirms social relations that inherently discriminate ~-~-- different identities are intelligible based on what’s understood as true from what others tell us. The dependency on sociality means identities have to satisfy the social conditions established to be recognized within the community. BUTLER 2:**

	19	+**This structure of recognition is created by social norms which discriminate between different approaches to identity to warrant that some require mourning while others don’t.
