Abstract
- The article focuses on cross-cultural communication in research work. If complete desire to communicate and readiness to understand is granted in the research, then the following possibilities come into focus as due to the nature of the human communication process as well as to the nature of human personality. Firstly, certain foreign experts cannot communicate successfully in any cross-cultural situation. Secondly, certain experts may be able to communicate in any cross-cultural situation and finally, experts from certain cultures or sub-cultures may be more successful at cross-cultural communication in a given situation than experts from other cultures or sub-cultures. The first perspective could be in the form of the syllogistic type. The second perspective could be phrased in terms of cross-cultural contact between individuals of different socio-economic levels or strata of culture. The third perspective could be phrased in terms of cross-cultural communication between individuals whose respective social systems are out-of-phase.
