"Living alone together” by Tzvetan Todorov

“The essays included in this book can be grouped around a great theme: the necessary relationship that the human being maintains with people who are different from him. Todorov starts from his own exile experience and from the study of key moments in history and the authors who have reflected on human diversity to analyze the discovery of the other, the relationship between the self and the other in the same society, between us and the others, between indigenous and foreigners.”
