This IAI article by Hamedeh Rastaei argues that the self does not exist without the other; I find the title to be obviously true. The subtitle is: Tolerance is a truce, not peace. This framing is uncontroversial. So, I agree with her central proposition,but I her argument makes a normative leap that its metaphysical premises can't sustain.
