| Zusammenfassung: | "What it means to be a "self" and how that self communicates in any given culture are key issues interwoven throughout Min-Sun Kim's impressive text, Non-Western Perspectives on Human Communication. Going beyond cultural descriptions or instructions on adapting to specific cultures, the author interrogates the very core assumptions underlying the study of human communication and challenges longstanding individualistic, Western models on which much intercultural research is based. Kim proposes a non-Western way of conceptualizing identity, or the self - the cornerstone of cultural research - illuminating how traditional Western and non-Western views can be blended into a broader, more realistic understanding of cultures and communication. Grounding her work in a thorough knowledge of the literature, she challenges students and researchers alike to reexamine their approach to intercultural study."--BOOK JACKET. |
