Description and Table of Contents
Description
The editors bring together essays that address issues of communication and identity in multicultural contexts to reveal insights into how cultural identity is constructed, maintained, represented and /or negotiated between and within cultures. In so doing, they also provide examples of a broad scope of inquiry into communication, identity and culture.
Communication and Identity Across Cultures is divided into three sections, the first and introductory essay provides a brief overview of identity and previews the essays that comprise the book. The second section presents seven perspectives of identity in different cultural contexts. The final section continues a feature introduced in Volume 20 - a dialogue between three scholars about cultural issues surrounding research and identity.
