Abstract

Wisdom is an important yet seldomly discussed topic within Possibility Studies. The present issue, with a lead paper by Heinz Streib and commentaries by colleagues from across disciplines, intends to change this state of affairs. This editorial reinforces these links and argues that Self – Other relations are fundamental for wisdom and the possible alike. It focuses on the consequences of placing xenosophia and ‘responsiveness to the other’ at the heart of living together, in a shared society, and being able to engage in wise explorations of the possible. The urgency of recognizing the otherness within the self and others as selves is emphasized in the end and a call is launched for a deeper integration between wisdom research and Possibility Studies.
