Description

Racial and ethnic strife is increasing at an alarming rate and has become a pressing social and political problem in many parts of the world. But how can we promote effective communication and cooperative relationships across ethnic boundaries? Interethnic Communication - the first anthology on interethnic relations which consists entirely of communication-focused studies - addresses this important question. Emphasizing interpersonal contact and interaction, this volume helps us understand how individuals and groups from a wide range of ethnic backgrounds interact with, and relate to, one another.
