Intercultural relations
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Intercultural relations is a relatively new formal field of social science studies. It deals with the ability to get along with others, especially those from a different cultural background.
Some of the main topics of study are:
- reflection and development of cultural competence
- analyzing different cultural patterns in the world
- finding strategies for adapting
- solving problems in intercultural communication
- teaching social skills to reduce cultural misunderstandings
- studying the lifelong impact of youth and other exchanges
