ABSTRACT
The other is intrinsic in contact. There is no contacting without contacting some other. This article considers some aspects of contacting the other. Different varieties of otherness are first addressed before contacting the human other is reflected upon. Contacting the human other raises questions concerning the nature of the field, self, dialogue, and the other as Other. “Responsivity” as aspect of the ethics of contacting the Other is proposed.
