Ubuntu and shalom

I had a feeling that the Zulu and Xhosa idea of ubuntu (which I blogged about earlier today) might be similar to the Hebrew idea of shalom.
Shalom is more than just peace. According to Walter Bruegemann,

The central vision of world history in the Bible is that all of creation is one, every creature in community with every other, living in harmony and security toward the joy and well-being of every other creature. ... Shalom is the substance of the biblical vision of one community embracing all creation.
