Summary/Abstract: Article explores the process of recognition and/or reception of the agreed statements of the Anglican—Roman Catholic dialogue by the Churches involved, namely, the Anglican Communion and the Roman Catholic Church. By Anglican-Roman Catholic dialogue, it understands the official dialogue between both communions on an international level, which was entrusted to the Anglican-Roman Catholic International Commission (ARCIC). Article presents different stages of the dialogue, its place within its mandating churches and its results. The notions of “reception” and “recognition” provide a hermeneutical key to interpret ARCIC influence over both Churches, ecumenical movement and ecumenical theology.
