Intercultural Communication: Globalization and Social Justice

Intercultural Communication: Globalization and Social Justice introduces students to the study of communication among cultures within the broader context of globalization. Kathryn Sorrells and new co-author Sachi Sekimoto highlight history, power, and global institutions as central to understanding the relationships and contexts that shape intercultural communication. Based on a framework that promotes critical thinking, reflection, and action, this text takes a social justice approach that equips students with the skills and knowledge to create a more equitable world through communication. The new Fourth Edition includes additional case studies and expanded discussions of the backlash to globalization, the rise of ethnonationalism, decline of democracy, new media and new technologies, and implications for intercultural communication.This text is offered in Sage Vantage, an intuitive learning platform that integrates quality Sage textbook content with assignable multimedia activities and auto-graded assessments to drive student engagement and ensure accountability.
