Features: There are many diverse cultures in the world. Our lives are constantly changing with the environment and the development of science and technology. Moreover, these changes are transcending national and ethnic boundaries, creating various connections between different ethnic groups and nationalities, which in turn generates many opportunities for what is known as "intercultural communication." Communication does not always imply friendship; it is also accompanied by cultural conflicts, and even armed conflicts. Only by continuously deepening mutual understanding can we create a better future for humanity. The theoretical research on how different cultures can achieve mutual communication is precisely the purpose of "intercultural communication" studies.

Chapter 1: Intercultural Communication and Culture
Chapter 2: Intercultural Communication and Japanese Language Teaching
Chapter 3: The Communicative Function of the Japanese Language
Chapter 4: Sino-Japanese Relations in Intercultural Communication
