We all live in a world not only of culture but of cultures, and in our lives we face moments when we struggle to come to terms with the cultures that surround us. Philipsen presents a framework, grounded in research, for how individuals can come to terms with the cultures of their life worlds. He emphasizes communication strategies for dealing with four different situations, in which: (1) a dominant culture can work against your purposes, (2) you seek to challenge or undermine a dominant culture, (3) you seek to integrate within one life two cultures that are crucial to your identity, or (4) you seek to reconstruct your life when a culture that had been a source of strength to you begins to crumble around you.
Gerry Philipsen, Professor of Communication at the University of Washington, delivered the Carroll C. Arnold Distinguished Lecture in November 2008 at the NCA 94th Annual Convention.
The Carroll C. Arnold Distinguished Lecture is proudly sponsored by Allyn and Bacon.
