{{Short description|Concept in the philosophy of Martin Buber}} __NOTOC__ '''Philosophy of dialogue''' is a type of philosophy based on the work of the Austrian-born Jewish philosopher Martin Buber, best known through its classic presentation in his 1923 book ''I and Thou''.<ref>Max Rosenbaum, Milton Miles Berger (1975). ''Group psychotherapy and group function'', p. 719.</ref>

For Buber, the fundamental fact of human existence, too readily overlooked by scientific rationalism and abstract philosophical thought, is "man with man", a dialogue which takes place in the "sphere of between" ({{langx|de|das Zwischenmenschliche}}).<ref>Maurice S. Friedman (1955) ''Martin Buber. The Life of Dialogue'', p. 85. University of Chicago Press.</ref>
