The author discusses the problem of perception and understanding the community in post-modern reality. The question of functioning in the community and evolution of a sense of identity is considered as well. The author identifies some aspects of “being” in Diaspora and in relation to the Other/Foreign individual. The considerations take into account, first of all, the anthropological and philosophical point of view. The author addresses a question: Does “being” in the post-modern community have a new dimension? Significant terms of postmodern discourse, such as: Diaspora, identity of a Diaspora, hybrid identity, foreign individual, community of network or imagined community are also indicated. The considerations lead to the conclusion that one can be placed somewhere between an identity of Diaspora, widely described by Brah and Castells, and the Waldenfels’s phenomenology of the Foreign.
