(CZ) Dialog a podmínky jeho existence
(EN) The dialogue and the conditions for its existence

Příspěvek se zamýšlí nad okolnostmi, za nichž je dialog možný. Reálně je blokován řadou zábran. Hlavní jsou ve výchovné tradici, v světonázorové rigiditě, v loajalitě k axiologickým požadavkům a v obavě z konfliktu rolí u téhož jedince. Závěr příspěvku je věnován předpokladům, které nesmí absentovat, pokud dialog má zůstat dialogem.

The author of the contribution reasons about circumstances under which a dialogue is possible. The world of the developmental acceleration in which we all take part, cannot do without seeing the alway increasing problems clearly — this being the sole possibility to act as a starting point to attempts to solve them. Such a starting point is seen just in a dialogue which at the same time represents a meaningful way of any existence in the world. Actually the dialogue is blocked by a number of obstacles. The mojor ones are seen in the educational tradition, in the loyality to axilogical demands, in the worldview rigidity, and in the anxictties that a conflict of roles in the same individual might arise. A dialogue is concieved as a dia-logos, and so the first condition is the claryfying of the concepts which are being operated upon here. — The conclusion is devoted to the hypotheses which must not be absent, so far the dialogue is to remain a dialogue. One of the main conditions of a dialogue is the art of listening to.
