Abstract
Intercultural research in the area of communication was initiated in the
early 20th century. Over the last few decades, researchers have built a solid theoretical
basis in this field. Nowadays, intercultural analyses include a rich collection of
texts on cross-cultural differences, the specificity of the phenomenon in the area of
verbal and non-verbal communication and also the role of the media. There is no
doubt that in an era of dynamic transformations of media use by people all over the
world, the sub-discipline of intercultural communication is facing another challenge
– that of including social media and network communication processes into new
empirical theories and research. The article answers the question of the status of
communication research in the field of the intercultural contexts of the new media.
Additionally, the directions of future development of these studies and conclusions
are discussed.
