The chapter, reflects on the theme of "otherness" to explore the mechanisms created at different levels (individual, social, and cultural ones) whenever we relate to the "other", stretching from feelings of openness and curiosity - underpinning reception and integration policies - to evident feelings of intolerance, urging, even manifestly, to discriminate against the other, perceived as different, or as one who belongs to what is "unfamiliar" and this within the land e sea borders of the Mediterranean.

Abstract

The chapter, reflects on the theme of "otherness" to explore the mechanisms created at different levels (individual, social, and cultural ones) whenever we relate to the "other", stretching from feelings of openness and curiosity - underpinning reception and integration policies - to evident feelings of intolerance, urging, even manifestly, to discriminate against the other, perceived as different, or as one who belongs to what is "unfamiliar" and this within the land e sea borders of the Mediterranean.
