Theology of migration: Migrants are people too
In early February, a series of seminars on human values began in Barcelona at the International School of Intercultural Philosophy (EIFI). These take place at a special institution: the Casa d’Espiritualitat Sant Felip Neri. Central to the first seminar were the decolonisation of thought and the theology of migration.

Migration is of all times. Once upon a time, the first humanoids roamed from Africa across the European continent and the first human species - Neanderthals and Homo Sapiens - mixed with each other. As Euro-Asians, their descendants continued their way through the Bering Strait to the Americas, and so on.
Much later, other migrants went in search of other cultures. Marco Polo's parents and Marco Polo himself travelled through Mongolia to China and returned home in amazement. Somewhat later, Columbus undertook his journey across a still unknown sea and equally returned with many stories. However, his journey did not lead to an encounter with the Other but to an imperialist invasion of a hitherto unknown continent.
Thus, the year 1492 marks the beginning of the global exploitation of overseas territories and the subjugation of peoples. It led to a division between the West and the rest with all its inhumane consequences. Consequences of which we see the effects now more than ever: people with no livelihood opportunities seek their way to where a life can be built.

From the author's foreword
Whoever wants to know, if he wants to attain authentic knowledge, must be willing to go on the way with what he wants to know, learn to esteem it, found community with it, and be reborn into the world from the history of the commonly trodden path.
This is the kind of knowledge of solitude to which this book aims to contribute. The two chapters that comprise it respond to this intention.
In the first, so to speak, we meet thinkers who in the history of philosophy have travelled the path of solitude.
With the support of this exercise of historical memory on dealing with solitude, the second chapter analyses some fields of encounter and dealing with solitude as testing grounds for learning a good way of dealing with solitude, which is what the kind of knowledge of and with solitude that our reflections in this book aim at should lead to.

The works collected in this volume, as the title indicates, want to invite us to think that philosophy, especially as intercultural philosophy, has to conduct its intercultural dialogue with the world as a dialogue which is at the same time an engagement with the existential questions which burden human beings in their life worlds.

FROM OUR ACTIVITIES IN 2023
XX International Seminar of the North-South Dialogue Programme:
“New Forms of oppression and liberation today”.
In memoriam Franz J. Hinkelammert
From 2 to 4 November, the 20th International Seminar of the North-South Dialogue Programme took place in Barcelona. Its topic: "New forms of oppression and liberation today".
Numerous participants came to dialogue with speakers from different regions of the world - from Africa, America, Asia and Europe - on the state of humanity in today's world. The description of new forms of oppression and liberation was the starting point for an in-depth examination of the metamorphosis of these forms at the crossroads between oppression and liberation, and for asking the necessary question of where the strength can come from so that people can recognise the ethical urgency of following the path of liberation and also want to follow this path.
>> More on this in the conference report, which will be published in the issue 85 of Concordia. International Review of Philosophy, that is upcoming.
>> an advance notice: The acts of this 20th International Seminar of the North-South Dialogue Programme will be published soon. They will include all the papers in full text.
