In this book we are interested primarily in culture as it is experienced by
those living in new cultural communities.Hall’s view of culture as a
system of shared meaning and expectations fits well with the way that
expatriates describe their intercultural learning experiences.Overwhelmingly,
when they talk of their experience abroad,they talk about their
experiences in terms of cultural difference or perhaps ‘patterns of
difference’.Jack,for example,when talking about his relationships with
Japanese says:
The Japanese I know – the students – treat me with respect ...my
students,they respect a professional.They heap adoration on me.
How much of it is legit and how much of it is typical Japanese overpoliteness,
I don’t know.
