Summary/Abstract: We can easily be taken in by the illusion that otherness, in the present context, builds itself on an opposition to the values of the West that rejects violently the one who lets himself be indoctrinated. But otherness is not only an ideological and religious construction: it is sometimes also an answer to the internal faintness of the young person; establishing at the same time a barrier against Evil and personal anxiety, it no longer concerns otherness, but a sort of self-indoctrination.
