高低语境文化成因及其交际差异对比研究

文化与交际互相依存,密不可分。在文化研究中,美国人类学家霍尔提出文化具有语境性,并把文化分成高语境文化和低语境文化。语境文化的不同影响着人们的思维和行为方式,语境文化差异是导致跨文化交际过程中产生误解和失败的重要原因。探究高低语境文化的形成原因并分析比较二者差异,避免误解和冲突,从而有利于实现成功的跨文化交际。

Comparative study on origin and communication differences of high-context and low-context cultures

Culture and communication are interdependent and inseparable. In cultural research, American anthropologist Hall proposed that culture has the character of context, and divided it into high-context and low-context cultures. Different cultural contexts influence the thinking and behavior of people. And the difference of context culture is the important reason that caused misunderstanding and failure in cross-cultural communication. The origin of high-context and low-context cultures is explored, the differences between them are compared, in order to avoid misunderstanding and conflict and benefit successful cross-cultural communication.
