The feedback from the students and Prof. Woywode was extremely positive, particularly with respect to the very practice-oriented approach to translating cultural knowledge into useable skills. Since then both the introductory lecture and the seminar are repeated on an annual basis.
Another frequent request we receive from students is for a reading list. A list of recommended readings with selected individual book reviews is already available on our web site, which provides a more general introduction to key intercultural communication issues and applications.
We have now, however, completed a more comprehensive reading list and bibliography. The titles, which we have all read and consulted frequently ourselves in the course of our activities, are listed alphabetically within four sub-categories: "General reading and background"; "Applications - Intercultural communication issues in international management"; "Applications - Intercultural communication issues for international negotiation"; and "Culture-specific readings". Especially in the list of culture-specific readings, we have attempted to provide coverage of as wide a range of cultural regions as possible. It should be noted of course that the level of written English in this reading list varies, though great attention has been taken to select texts of relatively easy readability. As this list is considerably longer, it does not contain individual reviews.
As the amount of published literature on intercultural communication is tremendous, we will of course continue adding to this list, which will soon be published on our web site. Our aim is always to provide students of the topic with a list that is as comprehensive as it is useable. Keep in mind that the key to accessing and benefiting from the wealth of information on intercultural communication, however, is to approach it with a functional framework that translates the knowledge on paper into a useable tool in the hand.
