[ecrea] Journal of Intercultural Communication

> Journal of Intercultural Communication
>
> The world today is characterized by an ever 
> growing number of contacts resulting in 
> communication between people with different 
> linguistic and cultural backgrounds. This 
> communication takes place because of contacts 
> within the areas of business, military 
> cooperation, science, education, massmedia, 
> entertainment, tourism but also because of 
> immigration brought about by labor shortage or political conflicts.
>
> In all these contacts, there is communication 
> which needs to be as constructive as possible, 
> without misunderstandings and breakdowns. It is 
> our belief that research on the nature of 
> linguistic and cultural similarities and 
> differences here can play a positive and constructive role.
>
> The goal of the Journal of Intercultural 
> communication is to promote research but also 
> education and training in the area of 
> intercultural communication. The journal is an 
> outgrowth of the activities of NIC - the Nordic 
> Network for Intercultural Communication. The 
> great interest shown in the activities of NIC 
> have pointed to a need for more journals 
> employing a peer review procedure within the 
> area of intercultural communication. By starting 
> this journal, we hope to encourage more research 
> and to facilitate contacts between interested 
> researchers as well as to provide better 
> possibilities for reviewed publication.
>
> We welcome contributions and reviews concerning 
> all areas of intercultural communication.
>
> In the Journal of Intercultural Communication, 
> we are testing a new form of publication - 
> "gradual publication". Rather than delaying 
> publication for those articles that have already 
> been accepted until all articles needed for the 
> publication have been refereed and revised, we 
> have decided to publish accepted articles, later 
> adding other accepted papers until the issue is complete.
>
> JICC is free and on-line. We have roughly 2500 
> readers per month. Please fell free to send in 
> articles for peer review and publication.
