structure of philosophical discourse

By Vintchiel Rodriguez

The world is becoming highly multicultural. With the immense development in transportation and communication and the emergence of migration cross-cultural interaction is indeed inevitable. This phenomenon brings a lot of positive implications such as awareness of cultural diversity and recognition of the uniqueness of different practices, norms, and traditions. It is equally important to also look into possible problems that we might come across during intercultural interactions. Problems such as the different ways of communication, accents and fluency, conflicting norms during interaction, different understanding of meaning and a lot more. Many researchers have already started looking for ways to avoid gaps because of these differences, be it in educational, (Creese & Blackledge, 2010; Mazak & Herbas-Donoso, 2015; Norris & Tsedendamba, 2015) work, (van Mulken & Hendriks, 2015; Firth, 1996; Wagner, 1996) or social settings. (De Keere & Elchardus, 2011; Harzing & Maznevski, 2010; Li, 2011; Tagg, Hu, Lyons, & Simpson, 2016) But these studies failed to pinpoint the cause of the problem and in doing so, provided limited solution to address this gap. Enactivism offers an answer on how development proceeds among cognitive beings. I believe that this is essential in tracing the problem in intercultural interaction and also in providing possible solution
