International Students as (un)bounded Sojourners
Author: Denise L. Kaye
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 370
Book Description
The United States is a leading country for hosting international students. Students around the world frequently seek higher levels of education outside their home country, and the once relatively homogenous international student population of the past has diversified. Growing evidence suggests that international students face a number of hurdles when studying abroad. A large amount of published research reveals how anxiety, ambiguity, and uncertainty challenge communication and identity (Ekachai, Hinchcliff-Pelias, & Greer, 1998; Gudykunst, 1995, 2005; Gudykunst & Kim, 1992) when people from different cultures interact. However, when considering the international student population, most studies have focused on either U.S. students studying abroad, or on shifting enrollment, delays in arrival, or financial and political concerns for international students coming to U.S. universities. Fewer studies focus on the transformation process that international students experience on a U.S. campus; even fewer examine the intersections between culture, communication, identities, and university orientation programs. Acculturation is one theoretical lens to view sojourners' experiences when participating in new cultural forums. Early acculturation theory used to view culture as being at the center of experiences leaving sojourners' positionalities as powerless victims to a system. Recent studies co-define individuals and environments (Kim, 2001) affecting acculturation and bringing communication to the center of experience, endowing sojourners with agency and recognizing the importance of voice. This study explores sojourners in the U.S. from a communication perspective. Notions of home, new places, new practices, and new meanings inform ways in which sojourners negotiate cultural identities in changing discursive spaces. Sojourners offer insight into cultural identities as a "state of becoming" (S. Hall, 1996) by articulating their emerging identities through cross-cultural and intercultural interaction.

Identity Research and Communication
Author: Nilanjana Bardhan
Publisher: Lexington Books
ISBN: 0739173057
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 321
Book Description
The concept of identity has steadily emerged in importance in the field of intercultural communication, especially over the last two decades. In a transnational world marked by complex connectivity as well as enduring differences and power inequities, it is imperative to understand and continuously theorize how we perceive the self in relation to the cultural other. Such understandings play a central role in how we negotiate relationships, build alliances, promote peace, and strive for social justice across cultural differences in various contexts. Identity Research in Intercultural Communication, edited by Nilanjana Bardhan and Mark P. Orbe, is unique in scope because it brings together a vast range of positions on identity scholarship under one umbrella. It tracks the state of identity research in the field and includes cutting-edge theoretical essays (some supported by empirical data), and queries what kinds of theoretical, methodological, praxiological and pedagogical boundaries researchers should be pushing in the future. This collection’s primary and qualitative focus is on more recent concepts related to identity that have emerged in scholarship such as power, privilege, intersectionality, critical selfhood, hybridity, diaspora, cosmopolitanism, queer theory, globalization and transnationalism, immigration, gendered and sexual politics, self-reflexivity, positionality, agency, ethics, dialogue and dialectics, and more. The essays are critical/interpretive, postmodern, postcolonial and performative in perspective, and they strike a balance between U.S. and transnational views on identity. This volume is an essential text for scholars, educators, students, and intercultural consultants and trainers.

Pages : 340
Book Description
This book looks at the movements of immigrants and refugees and the challenges they face as they cross cultural boundaries and strive to build a new life in an unfamiliar place. It focuses on the psychological dynamic underpinning of their adaptation process, how their internal conditions change over time, the role of their ethnic and personal backgrounds, and of the conditions of the host environment affecting the process. Addressing these and related issues, the author presents a comprehensive theory, or a "big picture,"of the cross-cultural adaptation phenomenon.
