More about the book

Focusing on the themes of responsibility and the concept of "the foreigner," this volume presents Jacques Derrida's seminar discussions from 1995 to 1996. He explores how society welcomes or represses foreigners, examining implications for kinship, ethnicity, and national identity. Key topics include borders, citizenship, and xenophobia, analyzed through classical and modern texts by thinkers like Heidegger, Arendt, and Camus. Derrida emphasizes the difference between conventional hospitality and an ideal of unconditional welcome for newcomers.
