Intercultural discourse and communication is emerging as an important area of research in a highly globalized and connected world, where language and culture contact is frequent. The Handbook contains contributions from established scholars and up-and-coming researchers from a range of fields to survey the theoretical perspectives and applied work in this burgeoning area of linguistics

This timely volume features first a section which introduces the background detailing the scope and topics of the field; followed by a section of four different theoretical approaches and their basic research questions, from Dell Hymes's foundational Ethnography of Speaking and John Gumperz's Interactional Sociolinguistics to Critical Approaches and Postmodernism. The following sections cover "Interactional Discourse Features" (such as turn-taking and politeness) and "Interactional Discourse Sites" (such as Greek-Turkish discourse). The Handbook concludes with chapters on the domains where such discourse occurs, such as Law, Medicine, and Religion
