The course will begin with several contemporary case studies for analysis, and then move on to theoretical issues, such as theories of globalization and the role of intercultural communication, education, science/technology, the media, and ethics in cross-cultural dialogue. Finally, the course will consider how normative solutions to cross-cultural conflicts can be arrived at.
