Abstract
Many of the themes discussed in the earlier part of this book show up again in the latter part. My concern here is to establish certain historical parallels between the discovery of the significance of communication as dialogue in broadcasting and its discovery by the churches and as developed in academe. It has been established that dialogue is an attitude whereby an individual accords an equal status to the partner in dialogue, and that such a dialogue is fundamental to human life. Both Buber and Bakhtin hold that ‘life by its very nature is dialogical’.
