Most of the literature dealing with intercultural communication
presupposes that communication is a tool for some other purpose
like selling shoes or making a personal relationship ""work."" Such
an assumption is what has given rise to the idea that intercultural
communication can be ""problematic. Much of the justification for
doing intercultural communication research is that business, world
peace, and security are contingent on our ability to communicate
effectively across cultural and national boundaries (which are not
the same thing as evinced by ethnic civil wars within national
boundaries). Intercultural Communication and Global Integration
presents the reader with a three-part approach to intercultural
communication; communication, culture, and consciousness.
Intercultural Communication and Global Integration argues that
communication, culture, and consciousness combine to form one's
intercultural perspectives. The tool of language is central to
understanding the relationships between these three elements. While
most tend to view these three areas as separate parts, the reader
will see they are much more integrated than most typically think.
For example, the relationship between communication and culture is
so close that there are those who have argued that principles of
communication are virtually identical with anthropological
descriptions. Intercultural Communication and Global Integration
includes student centered pedagogical features in each chapter,
such as: Topics/Objectives Pre-Chapter questions that help the
