Summary/Abstract: The aim of the article is to analyse the contemporary status of culture in its post-dialogic dimension. Current world thus comes in opposition to hermeneutics understood here in particular as real readiness for dialogue, the result of which may consists at least in the protocol of discrepancies. The current world is fed on post-dialogism, i.e. apparent dialogue in order to found another illusion represented by metautarky. In this context, Polish reality on the map of the world does not constitute anything special, and what increasingly matters is tribal rooting in a given place – even if it was supposed to be of temporary character: up to the border of my territory, which is long gone, to the mental border of what is “mine,” and not necessarily “ours.”
