5425601 | 後現代思潮與跨文化溝通 | Post-Modernism and Cross Cultural Communication | 3.0 | 3 |
中文概述 Chinese Description | 本課程將探討後現代的現象,並分析此現象為跨文化溝通帶來什麼轉變。後現代主義的定義眾說紛紜,批評與讚揚者兼而有之。美國前副總統Al Gore譏之為「自戀」與「虛無」的結合;法國馬克思理論家Guy Debord則讚揚它代表了「景象」的巨大成就;Jean Baudrillard的哲學作品中則感嘆後現代主義的「擬象」消除了真實;哲學家Jean-Francois Lyortard則為它辯護,認為後現代主義解構霸權論述,是一種溝通的解放。以後現代主義的角度來看,我們可以說文化乃由溝通而產生。本課程旨在探討、研究、分析此一現象 (幾乎與「全球主義」同樣無遠弗屆的現象),進而批判、檢視後現代思潮對現今跨文化溝通的影響。 | |||

One might say that, in a postmodern formula, it is communication that creates cultures in the first place. At any rate, we shall look into, study, and analyze the phenomenon (which is more or less co-extensive with what is called "globalism") and critically asses its practical impact on communica |
