      abstract = {This Open-Access-book explores diversity in its  ambivalence. On the one side, we love to describe diversity  as a resource for personal, social, economic, and cultural  growth. On the other side, categories of differences often  lead to discrimination or serve as justifications for  privileges. They can cause exclusion and, conversely,  promote the self-constitution of discriminated subjects and  groups. The book moves within this tension of exclusion and  belonging. Case studies of young ethnicized people vividly  depict the interwovenness of identity-building and  diversity. Theoretically, the book examines the  psychosocial and anthropological conditions for  constructing the Other. Sharp divisions between We and the  Other, between social and national groups, and between  humans and nature have devastating, life-threatening  consequences. Dichotomous split-offs divide people, nations  and the whole world. So, how do we deal with diversity? The  author does not provide simple recipes but engages in a  phenomenology of diversity that does not press life and its  manifestations into categories but keeps them in a limbo of  attention by affirming and doubting differences. The Author  Hans Karl Peterlini is Professor of Education at the  University of Klagenfurt (Austria) and holder of the Unesco  Chair "Global Citizenship Education - Culture of Diversity  and Peace". His research focuses on learning for a better  living together between humans, nature and animals.},
