Summary/Abstract: Daniel Innerarity, well-known in West European intellectual circles but almost unknown in Eastern Europe, where he has never been translated, is certainly one of the most penetrating observers of the new social realities of our time. According to the journal Le Nouvel observateur, Innerarity is one of the most significant thinkers of the 21st century. As opposed to the old Marxist Utopias, he proposes an ethics of hospitality imbued with the „new wisdom of frontiers“. His work is above all a reflection on the inner complexity of the contemporary world, with its characteristic opacity and enigmatic aspect. The authors of this article would like to introduce in brief the social theory of Daniel Innerarity. Presenting in brief his intellectual path and especially his sociological essay The Invisible Society, the article offers several keys that make it possible not so much to understand our time, as to sense one of the constant concerns throughout the history of mankind: our desire to better anticipate our own future. The authors highlight the originality of this view in presenting the new philosophical anthropology proposed by Innerarity in his book Ethics of Hospitality.
