How do people traditionally situated on the margins of
societyupeople of color, women, gays/lesbians/bisexuals, and those
from a lower socio-economic statusucommunicate within the dominant
societal structures? Constructing Co-Cultural Theory presents a
phenomenological framework for understanding the intricate
relationship between culture, power, and communication. Grounded in
muted group and standpoint theory, this volume presents a
theoretical framework that fosters a critically insightful vantage
point into the complexities of culture, power, and communication.
The volume comprises six chapters; key coverage includes: a review
of critique of the literature on co-cultural communication;
description of how the perspective of co-cultural group members
were involved in each stage of theory development; an explication
of 25 co-cultural communication strategies, and a model of six
factors that influence strategy selection. The final chapter
examines how co-cultural theory correlates with other work in
communication generally and in intercultural communication
specifically. Author Mark P. Orbe considers inherent limitations of
his framework and the implication for future research in this area.
Scholars and upper-level undergraduate and graduate students will
find that this volume covers an important topic which will be of
interest to those in the fields of communication, cultural studies,
and race and ethnic studies.
