fleischlin/meser – WHAT IS HUMAN

The traditional ideas of the family are dissolving more and more in favour of various manifestations. Families are becoming more complex, thereby reflecting the complex world in which we live. We understand “the family” as a group of people (and other animate beings) who are socially and emotionally (and/or genetically and/or legally) connected and responsible for each other. A social construct that is designed to last longer and that recognises and endures difference. We sit down at a table to zoom in, to zoom out. We become part of a larger community, come into contact with people of the most diverse backgrounds and cultures and we experience empathy, an ability that is radically necessary in a complex world.
