Abstract: | This paper examines the relational view of the person in Martin Buber's philosophy of dialogue. Shifts toward the relational are considered in the context of human development, gender studies, psychotherapy, and family therapy. A dialogical cpproach to couples therapy is presented, in which partners are encouraged to move toward a more collaborative, empathic relationship–a relationship of I and Thou. |
