It represents a major contribution to the literature." "Jan Nederveen Pieterse, Mellichamp Professor of Global Studies and Sociology in the Global & Inte""rnational Studies Program at the University of California, Santa Barbara, USA" "This volume makes a valuable contribution to developing research in interculturality by going beyond description of research method to engage critically with the methodical consequences of the complex constructs of identity, culture and interculturality that confront any researcher in the field. The volume works through important new possibilities for developing accounts of identity in intercultural contexts that will enrich scholarship in the field both conceptually and methodologically." Tony Liddicoat, Professor in Applied Linguistics, School of Communication, International Studies and Languages, University of South Australia "This collection of empirical studies makes an important contribution towards developing researcher awareness and capability in intercultural communication research. The studies draw on critical/interpretive research frameworks and methodologies to illustrate the possibilities and complexities of doing intercultural research. Readers will gain useful and important methodological insights, invaluable to their own research, where language, culture, identity, power and intercultural communication intersect."
