     [T]he For-self-ness of the one must therefore make the other something other than it is immediately set in the judgment: this self-preservation through subjection of the other under itself is therefore immediately an othering of this other; but the nature of Judgment must at the same time equally assert itself in this alteration and sublate at the same time this otherness.

     "Othering" may be defined as that process which serves to mark and name those thought to be different from oneself. An example of this is recent scholarship on whiteness. As Ruth Frankenberg asserts, to focus on whiteness is to displace the white from the unmarked, unnamed status that is itself an effect of its dominance. [...] The process of "othering" as an integral part of the identity formation of dominant whites is absolutely clear here.

   • 2017 May 2, “Can the Jummas of Bangladesh Speak?”, in Jumjournal‎, archived from the original on 12 July 2019:

     These new set of decisions may or may not be put into operation, but the process of constructing suspicion and othering of the Jummas is already in place. Jummas cannot be called "adibashis" [natives], Jummas cannot be recognised in the constitution, Jummas have to be called "khudro nri-goshthi" [insignificant people], Jummas cannot talk to anyone without a chaperone, government officials will prevent celebration of indigenous peoples' day – the list goes on.

     Democratic codes are the underlying discursive structure of democratic readings and evaluations of the world. A common distinction of codes is between the ethnos and the demos understanding of the democratic populace, that is, a prepolitical, possibly ethnic, and a political understanding of what constitutes "the people."

I want to question that to explore how they both serve as resources for democratic otherings.
