A comparative analysis between Finns and Chinese : how communication traits affect self-disclosure in intercultural friendships?

2016

Self-disclosure, or the process revealing personal information about oneself to another, plays a vital role in friendship formation and maintenance, and cultured self-disclosure has been proven to be a powerful factor influencing intercultural friendships. Substantial cross-cultural research has shown self-disclosure differs among different cultural groups, but little research has examined what factors facilitate or impede self-disclosure in intercultural friendships.

Communication et Interculturation

2021

Interpersonal communication brings together individuals who try to make sense of one another in a given context. In this ongoing intersubjective process, they use culturally-structured knowledge and references to conjure up figures and styles rooted in identity-play. Whether in organisations, in the media, or in our open, cosmopolitan, liquid societies of late modernity, identities appear ever more present, ever more pressing. They are linked to the cultural traits that people use to “perform” and make sense of themselves and others in different social situations. The forms, figures and styles in circulation are mediated and updated through these everyday symbolic interactions, within a soc…

Romanian Folk Literature in Our Classes: A Proposal for the Development of Intercultural Competence

2015

Abstract The present research highlights the ways in which folk literature, this valuable tool that contributes to students’ formation from both a human and literary perspective, can promote intercultural competence in class and foster a better integration within the community, while consolidating favorable attitudes towards interculturality. We share Rodriguez Almodovar's view (2009), according to which the folk story makes the geographic space expand; it channels affectivity, while guiding the learning process towards the acceptance of social values that are representative for each culture. The objectives of our study are focused, on the one hand, on improving intercultural competence amo…
