a

alienation, dislocation, integration

“Dislocation” is never mentioned as one of the stages. The answer should be found at the beginning of P2, where the rites of passage are described: “a rite of passage begins with separation from a position of security in a highly structured society; proceeds to alienation in a deathlike state where one is stripped of status, property, and rank; and concludes with reintegration into society accompanied by a heightened status gained as a result of the second stage.” The order is separation, alienation, reintegration.
