| Description: |
This long-awaited new edition is revised and expanded in response to the rapid evolution of multicultural societies and global organizations. |
| Synopsis: |
The study of intercultural communication has tried to answer the question, "How do people understand one another when they do not share a common cultural experience?" Just a few decades ago, this question was one faced mainly by diplomats, expatriates and the occasional international traveller. Today, living in multicultural societies within a global village, we all face the question everyday. As the world grows smaller, cultural isolationism is no longer an option: communicating across cultures is an integral part of a modern existence. In the long awaited second edition of Basic Concepts of Intercultural Communication, editor Milton J. Bennett provides a comprehensive overview of the field from a constructivist perspective.In addition to his insightful analysis, Bennett offers a full complement of classic readings on the topic of intercultural communication, including: Science and Linguistics, by Benjamin Lee Whorf, The Power of Hidden Differences, by Edward T Hall, Culture: A Perpetual Approach, by Marshall R Singer, Communication in a Global Village, by Dean Barlund, Cultural Identity: Reflections on Multiculturalism, by Peter S Adler Basic Concepts of Intercultural Communication has been revised and expanded in response to the rapid evolution of multicultural societies around the world. It explores contemporary applications of intercultural interaction as well as strategies for success. The impact of intercultural communication can be felt in both our personal and professional lives - and as such, demands our attention. |
