What is intercultural communication (IC)?,Communication: 交际、交流、传通、传播、沟通、通讯、传达、传报、联络 A: face-to-face interaction B: nonverbal communication,Intercultural Communication (IC):,A: IC is interaction between members of differing cultures (Sitaram & Cogdell, 1976). B: IC is the art of understanding and being understood by the audience of another culture (Sitatam, 1970). C: IC is communication between people whose cultural perceptions and symbol systems are distinct enough to alter the communication event (Larry A. Samovar, Richard E. Porter & Lisa A. Stefani, 1998).,Culture:,As early as 1952, Kroeber (克罗伯) and Kluckhohn (克拉克洪) listed 164 definitions of culture that they found in the anthropology literature. Estimated by 戚雨村，there are at least 250 definitions of culture. Culture is the total accumulation of beliefs, customs, values, behaviors, institutions and communication patterns that are shared, learned and passed down through the generations in an identifiable group of people.,Concepts Related to IC,A: Cross-cultural communication: This term implies a comparison of some phenomenon across cultures. (For example if we examine the use of self-disclosure in Japan and Germany, we are making a cross-cultural comparison. If we look at how Japanese use self-disclosure when communicating with Germans and how Germans use self-disclosure when communicating with Japanese, we are looking at intercultural communication. ),B: Intracultural communication: communication between people from the same culture. C: International communication: This term is distinctly different from IC in that it is interaction between political structures or nations, often carried on by representatives of those nations (Sitaram, 1970).,D: Interpersonal Communication: Communication between people E: Interracial Communication: It occurs when the source and the receiver exchanging messages are from different races. F: Interethnic Communication: Ethnic groups usually form their own communities in a country or culture.,II.
