Levinas and multicultural society: Ever heard of integration?

Levinas and multicultural society

I hope some day I will write a dissertation about Levinas and intercultural contact. I don't have time now, but at least I can express my thoughts on this blog. Levinas says that a relation becomes ethical when I meet another person. The image I create of the other can never coincide with the real person. An individual is unique, he can't be reduced to the (supposed) characteristics of his group. So I should have an open mind for the real person and let go of my prejudices anytime.

Ever heard of integration?

After the Netherlands - Argentina yesterday, I thought it was time for a little joke in orange.
And next week Hidde and I will be on vacation in Andalucia, so see you later...

Hé doos, nooit van integreren gehoord?
