KC77 Negotiation Translated into Turkish

Continuing translations of Key Concepts in Intercultural Dialogue, today I am posting KC77: Negotiation, which Beth Fisher-Yoshida wrote for publication in English in 2016, and which Candost Aydın has now translated into Turkish.

As always, all Key Concepts are available as free PDFs; just click on the thumbnail to download. Lists of Key Concepts organized chronologically by publication date and number, alphabetically by concept, and by languages into which they have been translated, are available, as is a page of acknowledgments with the names of all authors, translators, and reviewers.

If you are interested in translating one of the Key Concepts, please contact me for approval first because dozens are currently in process. As always, if there is a concept you think should be written up as one of the Key Concepts, whether in English or any other language, propose it. If you are new to CID, please provide a brief resume. This opportunity is open to masters students and above, on the assumption that some familiarity with academic conventions generally, and discussion of intercultural dialogue specifically, are useful.

CFP Journal of Transdisciplinary Peace Praxis

Call for Papers for the 8th issue of Journal of Transdisciplinary Peace Praxis. Deadline: 15 March 2022.

The Journal of Transdisciplinary Peace Praxis (JTPP) is concentrating the eighth issue on the broad theme of modelling and encouraging the values of peace and restoration in a fractured/polarised world order. A critical set of skills for those either working in the field of conflict resolution or aspiring to be peacemakers, modelling peaceful nonviolent values are in short supply in our postmodern and post-truth reality. They encourage all those working in the expansive and growing field of Peace, Conflict, and Justice Studies to submit their conference presentation papers, praxis and book review ideas, and full-length manuscripts for publication, especially those addressing:

The interplay between restorative and peacemaking values;
Non-traditional, or lesser known, exemplars of peacemaking and peacebuilding;
The challenges of embracing inclusive excellence in peacework;
The difficulties of justifying peacework in our capitalist and neoliberal world system.

CID Poster #11: Language and Intercultural Communication (reprise)

(We are reprising the series of posters, because it has been several years since they were originally created, and they are much too wonderful to let them not be noticed by newcomers to the site!)

This is CID Poster #11, designed by Brandon Peña, illustrating a quote related to KC78: Language and Intercultural Communication by Jane Jackson. This is the first designed by someone other than Linda J. de Wit. It came about because he is a student of Anna Klyueva, at the University of Houston-Clear Lake, and she turned posters into a course project (other faculty are welcome to do so as well, of course).

Just in case anyone wants to cite this poster, the following would be the recommended format:

Center for Intercultural Dialogue. (2018). Language and intercultural communication. CID Posters, 11. Available from:
https://centerforinterculturaldialogue.files.wordpress.com/2018/02/language-and-intercultural-communication-poster.png

As with other series, CID Posters are available for free on the site; just click on the thumbnail to download a printable PDF. They may be downloaded, printed, and shared as is, without changes, without cost, so long as there is acknowledgment of the source.

As with other series, if you wish to contribute an original contribution, please send an email before starting any work to receive approval, to minimize inadvertent duplication, and to learn about technical requirements. As is the case with other CID Publications, posters should be created initially in English. Given that translations of the Key Concepts in Intercultural Dialogue have received so many views, anyone who wishes to translate their own poster into another language (or two) is invited to provide that as well. If you want to volunteer to translate someone else’s poster into a language in which you are fluent, send in a note before starting, to receive approval and to confirm no one else is working on the same one.
