This paper rethinks the dialogical theories of Martin Buber and Carl Rogers to propose a framework of “Five Ideal Conditions for Dialogue.” Despite the widespread recognition of dialogue as an ideal form of communication in the field of communication studies, the conditions that enable its occurrence have not been sufficiently systematized. Drawing from Buber’s I–Thou relationship and Rogers’ concept of empathic understanding, five relational principles are identified: mutual trust, sincerity, empathy and acceptance, efforts to express these, and the conscious setting aside of power imbalances. These conditions are framed not as rigid rules, but as practical and ethical guidelines for fostering genuine dialogue. Emphasis is placed on the view that dialogue emerges dynamically in the “here and now” of interpersonal encounters, rather than as a controllable or fixed relationship. This study contributes a philosophically grounded yet practiceoriented perspective to the understanding and facilitation of dialogic communication.
