Summary/Abstract: The Dialogical's Culture or about another State - Church Relationship. In his study entitled the The Culture of Dialogue and the relationship between Church and State, the author pledges, on behalf of the Romanian Orthodox Church, for the reconsideration of her relationship with the secular institutions of the State. There is a great need for shifting from a collaborationist perspective (inherited from the Communist past) towards a more critical and contextual approach, shaped in particular by the common social goals of both the Church and the State. The representatives of Romanian Orthodox Church, claims the author, must give up their old habits, which resulted into a Church policy of adaptation and survival under the very difficult political circumstances of the atheist regime.
