Abstract

In the era of globalization we in a world of overlapping territories
and strangers are now always proximate, her or his otherness can
no longer be denied. Present-day modernity is characterized by
uncertainty; reason and knowledge-based science are questioned.
There is a need for a revaluation of culture, civilization, individual
and group identity. This also calls for a moral reassessment of
society and the nation-state.
