What are its prospects and challenges? The starting point of the article, after some historical remarks, is a kind of heterotopy of the dialogue in Chinese context, involving (III.1.) the historical and political context, then (III.2) its partners, and fnally (III.3) its forms and contents. in this framework, this article is (IV) refection on the challenges, opportunities and prospects of the Christian dialogue with Chinese culture. This refection is not taken here from the standpoint of theology, but is rather a phenomenological description of the status quo. At the end of the article (V) some statements of pope John Paul II with regard to the dialogue of Christianity with Chinese culture are quoted as a kind of summary. The article states a great asymmetry of partners of the dialogue in China caused by the restrictive religious policy. There are some forms of dialogue which, however, are realized outside of the institutionalized Christianity, i.e. the Christian Churches. The Churches themselves, due to their historical background, are not very interested in or prepared for an inter-religious dialogue.}, type={Artykuły / Articles}, title={The Question of the Christian Dialogue with Chinese Culture}, URL={http://sd.czasopisma.pan.pl/Content/97985/PDF/malek.pdf}, doi={10.24425/snt.2010.112720}, keywords={Chinese Culture, dialogue, Christianity, partners and forms of the dialogue, religious traditions}, }
