Relationships and Communication in East Asian Cultures: China, Japan, and South Korea

Offers readers an excellent introduction to cultural and communication concepts, rules, and norms that help build and maintain relationships in the cultures of China, Japan, and South Korea. Within each culture, the book focuses on three important relational domains - family relationships, professional relationships, and close peer relationships.
The unprecedented level of economic interconnectivity and cultural exchange between Western and East Asian nations calls for knowledge in building successful and sustainable intercultural relationships at both personal and professional levels.
To heed this call, Guowei Jian and George Ray's Relationships & Communication in East Asian Cultures offers readers an excellent introduction to cultural and communication concepts, rules, and norms that help build and maintain relationships in the cultures of China, Japan, and South Korea. Within each culture, the book focuses on three important relational domains, including family relationships, professional relationships, and close peer relationships.

Grounded in social scientific research, the book effectively integrates its analysis of contemporary relational and communicative practices with illustrations of their ancient cultural roots. Relationships & Communication in East Asian Cultures is a valuable source for scholars and students in fields such as intercultural communication, Asian studies, intercultural relations, and international management.
