Summary/Abstract: The article has the goal to explore the problem of correlation between “my death” and “the death of the Other”, raising the question of the boundary of experience with death, i.e. of the potential for what can be designated as domestication of death, in the sense of its unveiling and understanding. For this purpose, through the philosophical writings of Martin Heidegger and Jack Derrida, the article problematizes different aspects of the mentioned correlation, and its effects on the problem of social vulnerability are discussed.
