Abstract

 

Intercultural communication is now frequently happening worldwide, which contributes to the development of the world in various aspects. However, conflicts between cultures often arise from cultural differences, ethnic prejudice and different religious beliefs. Fortunately, these problems are avoidable, as long as we enhance mutual understanding and communicate effectively with people from an unfamiliar culture. 

This thesis mainly focuses on the ways for people to achieve effective communication with strangers in an intercultural environment, with the help of Gudykunst’s anxiety/uncertainty management theory (AUM). The film A Grandson from America is taken as a vivid and informative sample to study intercultural communication, for the issues this movie presents are common in real life, and some solutions in it are also advisable for people to achieve effective communication with strangers. 

By choosing the perspective of major characters, especially of the Chinese one, and analyzing their failed and successful attempts of intercultural communication related to language, education conceptions and cultural identity, I try to discover what cause the abnormal amount of anxiety and uncertainty leading to failed communication and how to use “mindfulness” as a strategy to cope with anxiety first, and then solve language barrier and other practical problems. In this way interlocutors could manage anxiety and uncertainty and make communication more effective. Finally, some suggestions are given according to my analysis for interlocutors involved in intercultural communication to prevent or eliminate conflicts.

 

Keywords: intercultural conflicts; effective communication;AUM theory,mindfulness
