Whether you are a practicing professional whose job requires print or online 
communication, an academic teaching and researching professional 
communication, or a student learning about the area, you probably agree that 
communication in and related to work and civic activity has become 
increasingly more international in the last thirty years.

You may have noticed that written, oral, and visual communication sent and 
received across a room, a city, a country, a continent, or around the globe, in 
a fraction of a second, has greatly supplanted communication in person or by 
landline phone or written or typewritten on paper and then sent by fax, truck, 
train or airplane to its destination. You may also have observed that creating 
goods and services and the accompanying documentation in other countries 
or continents to be used in different parts of the world is a far more 
widespread practice now than two or three decades ago when most 
organizations performed these tasks internally. You may even have noticed 
that knowledge itself is no longer the distant province of elites from your own 
or other countries, or something that people acquire in an initial period of 
formal education for the rest of their lives, but rather a resource that is 
constantly renewed, enlarged, disseminated, and acquired by individuals 
anywhere in the world who are brought together by similar interests and 
activities and the facilitating power of technology. And with greater access to 
knowledge, means of travel and communication, people are, you may have 
realized, more attentive to other languages and cultures--in a word, more 
cosmopolitan.

As someone who depends on efficient and effective communication to get 
your messages across and to understand the messages of others, you have 
certainly given considerable thought, and even spoken and written about the 
ways international professional communication influences, and is influenced 
by context.

The first issue of connexions - international professional communication 
journal | revista de comunicação profissional internacional aims at examining 
the field from your point of view on

- the past, present, and foreseeable future of the practice, research, and 
teaching of international professional communication, in local, national, 
international, and global contexts,
and/or
- how the practice, research, and teaching of international professional 
communication has reacted to changes in context, and acted upon its 
contexts, in different parts of the world.
