Institution:

Bentley University

Subject:

Description:

As we enter the third millennium, high-speed travel, satellites, the Internet, and the globalized economy have brought more people from different backgrounds into more frequent contact with each other than at any other time in human history. Conflicts, misunderstandings and even wars have been the result, along with greater tolerance of difference, and the creation of ever-larger webs of corporate and governmental cooperation. Explores communication across the divides of international geography, as well as communication within societies which divide themselves by race, class, ethnicity, religion, sex, gender, sexual orientation, and age.
