Fernanda Clavel De Kruyff — 2024-05-08

In this article, an analysis regarding the “Evil Eye” is carried out to justify said belief as not a type of knowledge in daily life (common knowledge) nor as scientific knowledge, but as a belief without objectively sufficient reasons to back it up. The meaning of the “Evil Eye” is narrowed down, and with this in mind, different reasons are offered to remain skeptical about the explanations given by the believers of this so-called curse. Lastly, an outlining of some factors is done in order to allow an understanding regarding why the believers of the “Evil Eye” attribute this condition to the wrong causes, as well as why they are so reluctant to abandon their conviction, even when there are good reasons to support a reasonable doubt regarding its existence.
