Description

As communication and transportation technologies shrink global distances and contact with unalike others expands, the necessity for effective intercultural communication becomes paramount. This text provides a solid foundation for applying communication principles to intercultural interactions. A key element in effective intercultural communication is recognizing ethnocentrism. To do so, one must first be aware of the pervasive influence of culture. This book uses the history of intercultural contact to emphasize the layers of collective consciousness that shape the attitudes and beliefs of various peoples. Different worldviews color perceptions, values, and communication patterns. Without an awareness of these differences, intercultural communication can result in misunderstandings, prejudice, stereotypes, and discrimination. Ineffective communication pre瑅ents the exchange and exploration of diverse perspectives that can enrich our lives. Through multiple examples, this book teaches the skills of competent intercultural communication so that active, interested participants can engage in the limitless bene琭its of sharing viewpoints with others in a rapidly changing world.

Reviews  

“Intercultural Communication continues to be the definitive work in the field. Many other textbooks (with their flashy multicolored distractions) pale beside this simple work of extensive intellectual scope and succinct explanation.” — Yun Ding, Tennessee Tech University

“The case illustrations are excellent and give example to the focal content. The global village chapter on media and world transformations adds a refreshing new and forward approach to the idea of developing and evolving issues.” — Tom Bruneau, Radford University

“One of the most comprehensive texts in intercultural communication I have read. Excellent selection of case studies. Well organized, easy reading.” — John Frahm, Concordia University

“Excellent resource to discuss nonverbal and verbal behaviors cross-culturally. User friendly.” — Linda Bland-Stewart, Columbia School of Arts & Sciences

“This is an excellent treatment of the subject. The examples are outstanding.” — Anna Chandler, Wichita State University

“I really love the historical framework this work provides! Also the examples look like they will generate active discussion.” — Mara Loeb, Northeast Louisiana University

Abstract:  

Publisher Fact Sheet This book provides an effective approach to intercultural communication between any two cultures, with particular examples from the U.S. & Mexico, & demonstrates that mastering the unspoken rules of Mexican culture is a key to cementing business & social relationships. Annotation Successfully communicating with people from another culture requires learning more than just their language. While fumbling a word or phrase may cause embarrassment, breaking the unspoken cultural rules that govern personal interactions can spell disaster for businesspeople, travelers, and indeed anyone who communicates across cultural boundaries. To help you avoid such damaging gaffes, Tracy Novinger has compiled this authoritative, practical guide for deciphering and following "the rules" that govern cultures, demonstrating how these rules apply to the communication issues that exist between the United States and Mexico. Novinger begins by explaining how a major proportion of communication within a culture occurs nonverbally through behavior and manners, shared attitudes, common expectations, and so on. Then, using real-life examples and anecdotes, she pinpoints the commonly occurring obstacles to communication that can arise when cultures differ in their communication techniques. She shows how these obstacles come into play in contacts between the U.S. and Mexico and demonstrates that mastering the unspoken rules of Mexican culture is a key to cementing business and social relationships. Novinger concludes with nine effective, reliable principles for successfully communicating across cultures.

Contents:

The global perspective of intercultural communication -- Why communicate across cultures? -- What constitutes a culture? -- Obstacles of perception -- Obstacles in verbal processes -- Obstacles in nonverbal processes -- Two worlds: the United and Mexico -- The Mexico-United States cultural environment -- Some Mexico-United States cultural issues -- Day-to-day cultural interactions -- Conclusion -- Transcending culture.

Title: Intercultural Interactions in Business and Management
Author(s): Salvi, Rita Tanaka, Hiromasa
Pages: 318
Publisher: Peter Lang AG
Location: Bern, CHE
Date Published: 09/2011
Language: en

Book synopsis

Given the consolidated position of English as the international language for communication in business and management, this book depicts a wide scenario in which to analyse and compare interactions between eastern/western European users of English, as well as Asian/European/North American speakers. From each chapter, different sociolinguistic realities emerge. They affect English, as used largely by non-native speakers, but also the relationship between local or national cultures and the global professional discourse community.

In this context not only the specialized lexis is analysed, but rather the ways in which different geo-political cultures construe, manifest and establish their identities. Although it is difficult to classify pragmatic usages of language, the six chapters in the first section deal with language and culture following a genre-based approach, whereas the six chapters of the second section specifically consider corporate identity in intercultural interactions.
This volume, which aims to avoid stereotypes and promote mutual understanding, is the offspring of a two-day seminar as part of the 10th ESSE (European Society for the Study of English) Conference, held in Turin, August 2010.

Book synopsis

This book demonstrates that culture and language are closely intertwined and argues that they need to be taught simultaneously from the very beginning of acquiring a second language. In the first part of the book, the author explores the close links between language and culture through looking at concepts such as ethnosyntax and gendered language. The discussion continues by examining the relationship of biculturalism and bilingualism, and the effects each can have on the other. This leads into an exploration of interculturalism and the idea of a third culture or interculture. The second half of the book demonstrates how culture and language are linked to cognition by looking at cognitive processing, emotions, and motivation in second language acquisition. This discussion illuminates some of the ways in which culture can influence the learning of a second language, and also provides fascinating insights into how culture and language affect memory and its role in the learning process.
