Addressing the encounter as a guiding assumption of human existence and requirement for overcoming the overvaluation of subjectivity, individualism, with the emphasis on the personal exodus, the importance of relationships with each other as a constitutive element of meeting’s reality. Paradoxically the world that every day creates new media, on the other hand makes people increasingly distant from each other making it impossible to build an authentic "culture of encounter". The route of this study is searching for researches already developed by other authors in different areas.
