It is increasingly important in our globalised world for people to
successfully manage interpersonal relationships. This is the first
book to tackle this vital topic, by taking an interdisciplinary
approach to exploring the process of relating across cultures.
Drawing together key concepts from politeness theory, intercultural
communication, and cross-cultural/intercultural psychology, it
provides a robust framework for analysing and understanding
intercultural encounters. It explores the ways in which individuals
make judgements about others, deal with offence and conflict,
maintain smooth relations, and build new relationships. These
processes are explained conceptually and illustrated extensively
with authentic intercultural examples and empirical data. With
accessible explanations and follow-up activities, it will appeal
not only to academics working in the areas of intercultural
communication, pragmatic theory, conflict research and other
related academic disciplines, but also to students of these topics,
as well as professionals such as intercultural trainers and those
working in the third sector.
