Abstract The Vatican II declarations on the Asian religious traditions (Nostra Aetate, 2) marked the passage from the era of pioneers (Western and Asian) to the stage of the 'reception' of interreligious dialogue by the Asian Churches. Several dimensions of the developments during the last forty years are here examined: the encounter of spiritualities, both on the level of classical heritages and of contemporary and more popular expressions; common endeavours for liberation; a growing awareness of the cultural and religious complexity of rapidly changing societies... In Asia, Christian theologies of religious plurality and interreligious dialogue belong to the life of the Churches as a whole.
