The article presents issues related with the formation of cross-cultural competence of modern man. I appeared different possibilities of defining competences and cross-cultural competence, and I made the characteristics of the major trends our world — in the society and economy. The aim was to justify the thesis of whether intercultural competencies are a privilege, or become essential competence of modern man.

This article aims to cast a glance on some questions relevant for theatre, with an emphasis on the actor’s point of view, not in order to investigate the acting practice but to develop a reflection. Theatre is a marginal art; an actor’s action is a displacement action, out of the centre, searching, moving. Also, the actor is always a foreigner, a strange stranger. We follow these questions while going through the fieldpath, with direct reference to Martin Heidegger’s text “Der Feldweg” (1949). As an actress, I try to understand it by walking my own path.

In literary research, the term ‘outsider’ seems almost absent. It appears slightly more often as a more general notion, but usually alongside three other terms (also not always well defined) to which it is subordinate: Stranger, Other and misfit. Within this heterogenous group, it acts as either a synonym or at best, as a notion close in meaning to the other three, a complement. It seems though that the term ‘outsider’ when referred to a literary character may, as an interpretative category (especially in first-person-narrative prose) prove useful and productive in terms of opening up the interpretation and analysis of a literary work towards dimensions other than those normally inhabited by the three usual companions of the ‘outsider’.

Esej stanowi historyczną analizę kategorii Obcego. Autor wyszczególnia dwa jej rozumienia, które pojawiły się w dwudziestowiecznej myśli społecznej. Pierwsze traktuje obcość jako własność odnoszącą się do zewnętrznych relacji grupy, drugie zaś jako charakterystykę relacji grupy względem funkcjonujących w jej obrębie mniejszości. Na bazie tego rozróżnienia autor proponuje dwa modele Obcego: oparty na kategorii członkostwa oraz oparty na kategorii uznania. Omawia je bazując na tekstach takich klasyków jak Simmel i Schütz, oraz autorów współczesnych, jak Taylor i Bauman. W trakcie prowadzonych analiz historycznych wskazane zostaje bliskie pokrewieństwo obu tych modeli. Współczesny model uznania implikuje mianowicie traktowanie przedstawicieli różnorodnych tradycji kulturowych jako członków tej samej wspólnoty moralnej. Autor zwraca również uwagę na podobną zależność w przypadku zjawiska radykalnego Obcego, gdzie brak uznania łączy się ściśle z aktem wykluczenia moralnego. Przedstawione analizy mają na celu identyfikację głównych nurtów interpretacyjnych kategorii Obcego oraz wskazanie tendencji, jakim rozumienie tej kategorii współcześnie podlega.

The article presents a historical analysis of the category of “the stranger”. The author distinguishes two conceptualizations that emerged in twentieth-century social thought. One treats strangeness as a feature of a group’s external relations, while the other – as a characteristic of a group’s relations with the minorities functioning within it. Based on this distinction, the author proposes two models of “the stranger”: one based on the category of membership and the other based on the category of recognition. Both are discussed with the reference to the classical texts, such as the ones by Simmel or Schütz, as well as to the contemporary authors, such as Taylor and Bauman. The historical analysis allows to establish a close relationship between the two models. The contemporary model of recognition implies that the representatives of various cultural traditions are treated as the members of a shared moral community. The author draws attention to a similar relationship in the case of the “radical stranger” phenomenon, in which the lack of recognition is closely related to the act of moral exclusion. The article aims at identifying the main historical conceptualizations of “the stranger” and indicating the current trends in approaching this category.
