Abstract:

This revised edition of Michael Byram’s classic 1997 book updates the text in
light of both recent research and critiques and commentaries on the 1st
edition. Beginning from the premise that foreign and second language teaching
should prepare learners to use a language with fluency and accuracy, and also
to speak with people who have different cultural identities, social values and
behaviours, the book is an invaluable guide for teachers and curriculum
developers, taking them from a definition of Intercultural Communicative
Competence through planning for teaching to assessment. This edition refines
the definitions of the five ‘savoirs’ of intercultural competence, and
includes new sections on issues such as moral relativism and human rights,
mediation, intercultural citizenship and teachers’ ethical responsibilities.
