When you won­der who the stran­ger is

How do you become a stran­ger? Is it a good or a bad thing? Let’s have a think about it. Yes­ter­day, I was thin­king about what would hap­pen if we were to diverge too much from our group’s stan­dards. Sur­pri­sin­gly, as an indi­ca­tion, Edgar Schein dis­cusses this same theme in his book on orga­ni­sa­tio­nal culture. My ques­tion is, is it a bad thing to become a stran­ger to your community?

Let’s look at what is going on around us. Although my approach is not enti­re­ly scien­ti­fic, I will make some obser­va­tions. Let’s take a typi­cal resi­den­tial neigh­bou­rhood in Que­bec, where I am now, for example. Around my pro­per­ty are other pro­per­ties. My neigh­bours are total stran­gers to me. I could reco­gnise them if I was asked to iden­ti­fy them, but I couldn’t tell you their names or any­thing else about their res­pec­tive lives other than what can be obser­ved from public space.

So what is a stran­ger? Is it someone we know abso­lu­te­ly nothing about? If so, the world is full of stran­gers in our eyes, but there are pro­ba­bly none, unless we were aban­do­ned in the wild at birth and survived.
