Summary: | Migration has put the issue of the stranger into the centre of attention in many European societies. This article reflects upon the experience of alienness from a phenomenological and biblical perspective in order to show how complex the processuality is which alone can adequately relate the own to the other. On this basis, the engagement with the stranger is displayed as a diaconal challenge and points of reference for the diaconal praxis are developed. |
