Readers will learn to become more attuned to power relations and the ways in which sociopolitical forces can influence language choice/attitudes and the intercultural communication process. Features new to this edition include: revised in-text discussion questions, exercises and examples that aim to engage students and provide a more interactive experience; new material that takes account of key social, cultural and political events such as the refugee crisis, Brexit and the rise of populism in many parts of the world; updated theoretical constructs that reflect recent trends in the area such as criticality in intercultural communication; an updated companion website featuring suggested readings, links to media resources and real-world intercultural scenarios for students, as well as additional in-depth instructor resources featuring test materials, PowerPoints, key terms, extended chapter outlines and sample assignments and syllabi. refreshed references and glossary to enhance understanding of key terms and concepts.
