Integration

The term integration drives from the Latin word (integratio respectively integrare) and actually means to renew, renewal, spiritual refreshing.
How far have we departed us from such understanding. Today we see a successful integration of people in an existing company as their incorporation. What we actually mean, however, is simply their adaption. The subordination of immigrants into the prevailing society. The prevailing society does not really want to include them, however. Standing on the edge, with little chance of inclusion into the given society, we not only rob these people of their own personal development but our society of the chance of continuous renewal.
