Abstract

The paper examines the relationship towards foreigners in diverse societies, especially in the ancient world. Proceeding from a simple definition that foreigners are non-members of a group, the author enters into a social-historical analysis of expulsion of foreigners, foreigners as enemies, as usurpers, of deportation of foreigners into slavery, deportation from their homes. The relationship to foreigners, and to all foreigners, was not always the same at all times in all societies of the ancient world, but in all of them foreigners were lesser valued persons, "barbarians", these that were different, even where they were allies or well-received.
