The value of coexistence : from the postmodern crisis to the prospect of religion

الملخص EN

The value of coexistence, as an articulated existential value based on the consideration of otherness and participation, finds welcome in a postmodern climate characterized by difference and openness to the other through interaction, acceptance, and rejection of closure, otherwise, the denial of any criterion that establishes the value of coexistence, makes postmodernism a space distinguished by a foundational crisis.

On the other hand, we find religion as an existential concept that orbs the debate of the basis and purpose of coexistence.

It presents itself as a criterion in the moral debate, especially the value of coexistence, in a world that can not be thought of without the other, the family, the community, and the public space, where the ego does not have to melt into the 'we'.

In other words, it is not possible to think about the value of coexistence apart from religion.

Based on this assumption, this paper attempts to show the crisis of the value of coexistence in a postmodern space and how religion can confront and overcome this crisis.
