在多元文化相互交融的21世纪，人们越来越真切地意识到，“跨文化交际”作为构建跨文化社会身份的社会资本，在全球化的宏大叙事中享有独特的话语权，肩负着跨越文化边界、超越自我、超越对立并最终实现和谐人类社会的责任和义务。但作为21世纪全球化的建设者，我们尚未做好充分准备，仍不习惯以全球化为背景，从跨文化的视角来观察、审视、诠释并参与“地球村”概念越加真实的21世纪的社会生活。
贝茨·霍弗、贾玉新、本名信行、宋莉编著的《跨文化交际--东西方对话/外教社跨文化交际丛书》汇集了近几十年中外学者对跨文化交际理论与实践的探索与思考。其具体内容涉及跨文化交际的核心问题和研究视角、跨文化交际理论、文化相对论与文化多元性、跨文化交际能力、跨文化冲突管理以及跨文化交际研究在教育领域的应用等。《跨文化交际--东西方对话/外教社跨文化交际丛书》内容在展现中外学者跨文化交际研究智慧的同时，更为广大学界读者深刻了解自己和他者的文化、学会在不同文化话语体系之间进行比较和参照提供了宝贵的平台。希望通过研读《跨文化交际--东西方对话/外教社跨文化交际丛书》，读者不仅乐于关注跨文化交际中“词语（word ）”层面的知识，而且开始自觉关注“寰宇（world ）”层面的知识，以便在跨文化交际中做到胸有成竹，游刃有余，张弛有度，运用自如。
贝茨·霍弗、贾玉新、本名信行、宋莉编著的《跨文化交际--东西方对话/外教社跨文化交际丛书》以“东西方的交汇”为主题，从国际跨文化交际（ICS）创刊以来的论文中精选31篇论文，共分为六大部分。文章作者来自世界各地，讨论了跨文化交际研究的热点议题，反映了这一时期来跨文化交际研究的研究成果。
