We are delighted to announce that the latest ReDICo edited volume, Explorations in Digital Interculturality: Language, Culture, and Postdigital Practices, has been published and is available in open access.
Edited by Milene Oliveira and Luisa Conti, the book examines the emerging field of digital interculturality from the perspectives of especially intercultural communication and sociolinguistics, but also incorporating related disciplines. The chapters analyse how the digital – in the form of social media platforms, translation apps, and artificial intelligence – mediates intercultural encounters, shapes identities and influences meaning-making.
Covering themes such as migration, corporate discourse and digital activism, the volume situates online intercultural experiences within wider sociocultural contexts. It offers conceptual and empirical insights that help to position digital interculturality as a transdisciplinary research area.
The volume features a conceptual chapter authored by the ReDICo core researcher-team, which integrates key insights drawn from four years of intensive fieldwork.
The volume shows that experiences of digital interculturality always remain embedded in broader social and cultural dynamics. It offers valuable insights for the theoretical and methodological advancement of this research field, and advances our understanding of our postdigital reality.
