Emerging Theories of Human Communication

This book summarizes the important and promising emerging theories of human communication that go beyond received traditions. It includes essays on emerging theories of communication and culture; relational communicative competence; conflict communication; communication and peace; agenda setting and the role of mass media in democratic political processes; new rhetoric and new social movements; and communication and management of public-sector competitiveness. Contributors to this volume include Deborah Blood, Dudley D. Cahn, Donal Carbaugh, Ron B. Cullen, Donald P. Cushman, William A. Donohue, Timothy Gibson, Gerard A. Hauser, Trudy Milburn, Hiroshi Ota, Jiro Takai, Susan Whalen, John M. Wiemann, Mary O. Weimann, and Jian H. Zhu.

Branislav Kovacic & Donald P. Cushman At a time of increased politicization and
radicalization of the intellectual processes involved in theoretic inquiry, there is a
need to stand back from these processes and locate a pluralistic standpoint that
can help us deal with progress or lack of progress toward understanding the
human communication processes. Such a pluralistic standpoint entails, of course,
human preferences and therefore is subject to discussion and debate. However,
it is ...

Human Communication Handbook

Simulations and Games

Contains games and structured exercises designed to develop familiarity with the dynamics of personal, social, and mass communication

Whether one chooses to focus attention on inter-group, community, societal,
international, cross-cultural, or mass communication processes, each can be
regarded as a communication system composed of inter- linkages between
interacting and co-determining information processing subsystems. These
subsystems, in turn, are composed of smaller subsub- systems, which may be
composed of still smaller social units, the basic unit of which is the individual. As
the number of parts— ...

Theories of Human Communication

Eleventh Edition

The Eleventh Edition is organized around: (1) elements of the basic communication model—communicator, message, medium, and “beyond” human communication; and (2) communication contexts—relationship, group, organization, health, culture, and society. A new chapter discusses four frameworks by which theories can be organized; students can see how theories contribute to and are impacted by larger issues about the nature of inquiry. To provide comprehensive, up-to-date coverage of theories, the authors surveyed articles in communication journals published over the last five years. Each chapter covers an average of 13 theories, half of which are new to this edition. New areas covered include health, social media, and “beyond human communication”—communication between humans and nature, humans and objects, humans and technology, humans and the divine. “From the Source” boxes give students a look at the theorists behind the theories—their inspirations, motivations, and goals. Written in an accessible style, the book is ideal for upper-division undergraduate classes and as a comprehensive summary of major theories for the graduate level.

A Post-Liberal Approach to Language Policy in Education

This provocative defense of language diversity works through the strengths and weaknesses of liberal political theory to inform language policy. The book presents the argument that policy must occupy the space between 'linguistics of community' and 'linguistics of contact' in a way that balances individual autonomy and group recognition while not reifying 'language'. Drawing on the importance of the language/identity link, the author distinguishes between language negative liberalism and language positive liberalism, arguing against the former. This distinction orients consideration of increasingly specific language policy issues, such as official languages, language rights, bilingual education, and uses of language varieties within classrooms.

A Machine Translation Approach to Cross Language Text Retrieval

Cross Language Text Retrieval (CLTR) has been defined as the retrieval of documents in a language different from that of the original query. To make this possible some kind of mechanism has to be applied in order to translate the information contained in the source sentence. Many different approaches have been carried out with the purpose of transferring the information from the source language query to the target language one. Though all these methods deal with a way of translating as much information as possible from the source query, little research has been conducted in relation to the field of Machine Translation (MT). The purpose of this research work is to determine the feasibility of using MT techniques for CLTR. Specifically, I will describe how a MT system has been adapted without much effort to translate Spanish queries of a specific domain, i.e. Finance and Economics, into English in order to retrieve documents related to that field. The results of this process will then be compared with the results obtained from the retrieval of the original English queries. Thus, I will discuss the advantages and disadvantages of using MT for CLTR.

This second part of the project proved essential for deciding the benefits that a
more complex linguistic based method can add to CLTR. For this part of the
project, I worked with TRECQ1-10. First of all, it is important to mention the fact
that the IR system was not helpful for the experimentation involved here. SIRE is
designed to deal with words individually, and thus a comparison between the
retrieval of the original TREC queries using strings of individual words as
opposed to other ...
