The Negotiation of Cultural Identity

Perceptions of European Americans and African Americans

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Cultural identities are negotiated within the interaction of individuals and groups but the exchange is often more deleterious for marginalized groups than it is for whites. This book offers a new conceptual approach to defining the cultural self in order to gain insight into the process and outcome of intercultural interaction.

---

Whiteness is often looked upon and equated with being American, but this book seeks to discover how other American voices and experiences have been and are excluded from the American legacy. It directly addresses the notion of self and human division in a cultural climate that has historically fostered the marginalization of multiple racial identities. This is an interdisciplinary work on understanding and promoting intercultural communication and will be of interest to students and scholars in the fields of communication, multicultural studies, social psychology, and sociology.
