Communication and Culture: Cultural Paradigms and Referentials

ABSTRACT.The issue of between individuals and between groups becomes a problem of effective and mutual understanding between cultures. searches towards overcoming barriers in intercultural focus not only on institutional (between governments or between national organizations), but also on well-defined between cultural communities a well-defined identity (between linguistic communities, ethnic or religious): they take into account any act including international professional (where there appear barriers in because national cultures).Keywords: communication; culture; paradigm; communityThe has been observed, as a fundamental element of human existence, since ancient times. In fact, etymology of term, suggests that word, comes from Latin word communis, meaning agree, being in relation with or being into a relationship, although term circulates in ancient vocabulary, meaning convey to share something others.Starting original meaning of German term mitteilen (to communicate, to transmit), Hans Georg Gadamer will define culture, as a kind of (Mitteilung), meaning mit-teilen, to share, something someone else which, by sharing, everything grows.
