Abstract:

Studies of intercultural communication in applied linguistics initially
focused on miscommunication, mainly between native and non-native speakers of
English. The advent of the twenty-first century has witnessed, however, a
revolution in the contexts and contents of intercultural communication;
technological advances such as chat rooms, emails, personal weblogs, Facebook,
Twitter, mobile text messaging on the one hand, and the accelerated pace of
people’s international mobility on the other have given a new meaning to the
term 'intercultural communication'.

Given the remarkable growth in the prevalence of intercultural communication
among people from many cultural backgrounds, and across many contexts and
channels, conceptual divides such as 'native/non-native' are now almost
irrelevant. This has caused the power attached to English and native
speaker-like English to lose much of its automatic domination. Such
developments have provided new opportunities, as well as challenges, for the
study of intercultural communication and its increasingly complex nature. This
book showcases recent studies in the field in a multitude of contexts to
enable a collective effort towards advancements in the area.
