Martin Bubers work suggests that real life begins with two individuals engaged in dialogue, not just taking care of ones own needs as described in social Darwinism. Arnett argues that the end of the age of abundance demands that we give up the communicative strategies of the past and seek to work together in the midst of limited resources and an uncertain future. Todays situation calls for an unwavering commitment to Bubers narrow ridge concern for both self and community. Arnett illustrates the narrow ridge definition of interpersonal communication with rich examples. His vignettes demonstrate effective and ineffective approaches to human community. An effective approach, he makes clear, incorporates not only openness to others points of view but also a willingness to be persuaded.

FOREWORD
Maurice Friedman
The implications of Martin Buber's philosophy of dialogue for the understanding of communication have been given much attention in recent years by scholars in the field of communication, including Ronald Arnett himself. What is not so well known or adequately understood is the indispensable context of that philosophy of dialogueBuber's lifelong concern with community. Ronald Arnett's discussion of the implications of dialogic communication within the context of community is at the heart of Buber's life and work.
The Community Context of Buber's Dialogue
When he was twenty, Buber delivered a lecture to the Socialist Club of the University of Berlin on the thought of the nineteenth-century German socialist Ferdinard Lassalle, in whose life and work he had immersed himself. Shortly thereafter, Buber entered into an intense and lasting association with a leading communal socialist of early twentieth-century Germany, Gustav Landauer, a man whose life and death left a deep imprint on Buber's own life and thought. In 1905, Buber wrote an introduction to a collection of forty socialpsychological monographs that he edited from 1906 to 1912 under the title Die Gesellschaft. In this introduction, Buber coined the

term "das Zwischenmenschliche" (what is between person and person) and pointed beyond individual existence to the action or suffering of two or more persons together. In 1917, when he wrote an essay on "My Way to Hasidism," Buber characterized his childhood contact with this popular communal Jewish mysticism of Eastern Europe as one that showed him "debased, yet essentially intact, the living double kernel of humanity: genuine community and genuine leadership.''
In his first teaching in his own name, as opposed to the interpretation of Hasidism, his highly influential "Speeches on Judaism," Buber pointed to a community as lying at the center of the still uncompleted task of "Jewishness." In the common life of men, as nowhere else, he wrote, a formless mass is given us in which we can imprint the face of God. The human community is an important work that awaits us; a chaos that we must order, a diaspora that we must gather, a conflict that we must resolve.
