Description

How is cultural identity accomplished interactively?

What happens when different cultural identities contact one another?

This book presents a series of papers, from classic essays to original expositions, which respond to these questions.

The view of communication offered here -- rather than ignoring culture, or making it a variable in an equation -- is based on cultural patterns and situated communication practices, unveiling the multiplicity of factors involved in particular times and places. The contributors to this unusual volume represent a wide range of fields.

Their equally diverse offerings will serve to clarify cultural distinctiveness in some communication phenomena, and lay groundwork for the identification of cross-cultural generalities in others.
