Culture, Communication, and Cooperation
Culture, Communication, and Cooperation treats a broad topic_communication and effectiveness in organizations_in a very concrete way. Patricia Covarrubias presents an engaging and original ethnographic study of approximately 550 workers in a Mexican industrial organization in Veracruz. She studies the complex interpersonal networks formed and destroyed by language subtleties, specifically terms of personal address (to and usted), and draws larger conclusions about language, culture, and social interaction in businesses and organizations_and also about beliefs and values that are central to Mexican culture. While the book specifically targets students and scholars of organizational communication, those with an interest in Mexican language and culture will also want to read Culture, Communication, and Cooperation_now available in paperback.
Among Cultures
Through its unique approach of using narratives and stories to convey theories and concepts, this text, now in its fourth edition, gives students a foundational knowledge in intercultural communication that is imperative for understanding and navigating our increasingly complex human interactions.

New to this edition are increased explorations of immigration, intersectionality, and privilege. For greater flexibility, it introduces a series of mini chapters on topics such as gl...

The Handbook of Communication in Cross-cultural Perspective
This handbook brings together 26 ethnographic research reports from around the world about communication. The studies explore 13 languages from 17 countries across 6 continents. Together, the studies examine, through cultural analyses, communication practices in cross-cultural perspective.

Some of the communication practices explored include complaining, hate speech, irreverence, respect, and us...

Theories of Human Communication
For almost four decades, Theories of Human Communication has offered readers an engaging and informative guide to the rich array of theories that influence our understanding of communication. The first edition broke new ground with its comprehensive discussion of theorizing by communication scholars. Since that time, the field has expanded tremendously from a small cluster of explanations and relatively unconnected theories to a huge body of work from numerous traditions or communities of scholarship. The tenth edition covers both classic and recent theories created by communication scholars and informed by scholars in other fields. Littlejohn and Foss organize communication theory around tw...
Unruly Speech
Unruly Speech explores how Uyghurs in China and in the diaspora transgress sociopolitical limits with "unruly" communication practices in a quest for change. Drawing on research in China, the United States, and Germany, Saskia Witteborn situates her study against the backdrop of displacement and shows how naming practices and witness accounts become potent ways of resistance in everyday interactions and in global activism. Featuring the voices of Uyghurs from three continents, Unruly Speech analyzes the discursive and material force of place names, social media, surveillance, and the link between witnessing and the discourse on human rights. The book provides a granular view of disruptive communication: its global political moorings and socio-technical control. The rich ethnographic study will appeal to audiences interested in migration and displacement, language and social interaction, advocacy, digital surveillance, and a transnational China.

It covers the journalistic practice of reporting culture broadly by looking specifically at Finns and Americans reporting about their respective homelands and about the other’s culture and ...
소통
인간은 해석된 의미의 세계에 산다. 이때 의미는 다른 사람과의 언어적, 비언어적 의사소통을 통해 변화하고 구성된다. 그래서 소통의 본질은 협력이다. ‘나’를 넘어서지 않은 소통, ‘남’과 함께하지 않는 소통은 불통만 낳을 뿐이다. 이 책은 협력적인 대인 의사소통의 이론과 실제를 망라한다. 사회구성주의적 관점에서 의사소통을 새롭게 정의하고, 일상적 대화에서 유용한 소통 방법과 기술을 소개한다. 탄탄한 이론과 풍부한 사례를 곁들였다. 이 책은 화법 교육 교사와 학생들을 위해 집필되었다. 학습에 도움이 되도록 각 장마다 단원 목표와 요약, 생각해 볼 문제, 읽기 자료를 더했다. 서로를 이해하고 도우며 더불어 사는 법을 익힐 수 있을 것이다.
