Where is home?

Everyone has their own definition

The homeland is an extremely fuzzy concept. Hence the fact that it gives rise to so much debate, often very emotional. Some people have a very closed view of it, while others believe in a freer definition. Blogger Ronja von Rönne asked herself the question of what it means to be home.

In this episode of Streetphilosophy, she will question a singer who has no real home, a young woman who feels a duty to take over her family's fishing business in the land where she was born, an Iranian upholsterer and storyteller in Berlin, and a philosopher who reflects on the notion of anchors, of family.

For the latter, it can be dangerous to conceive of the homeland as a territorial approach to be defended. What if it were instead an emotion to be developed daily, a quest for stability in a fast-changing world?
