Philip Deavel, Deputy General Counsel for Dispute Resolution, US Air Force <\/a>tells of the intercultural skills needed when American tanks have destroyed a Korean farmer&#8217;s rice field or when the warring factions in Rwanda had to come to an accommodation.<\/p>\n<p><strong>absolutely personal:<\/strong><br \/>\nRichard Harris, Professor, Faculty of Management, Chukyo University, Japan has a novel way of describing the proximity expected in some cultures. &#8216;People from the Middle East &#8230;say they love to feel the breath of the other person&#8217;. He also explains how distance is measured by the singing of songs by some Pacific cultures.<\/p>\n<p><strong>absolutely Kahn:<\/strong><br \/>\nDr Gary Weaver explains a cultural simulation involving a Mr Kahn of unknown origin. Kahn comes from a high context culture as defined by <a href=\"http:\/\/changingminds.org\/explanations\/culture\/hall_culture.htm\">Edward Hall <\/a>and we hear an extract of a role play in which low context meets high context with amusing results. Behind the fun lie some important intercultural principles.<\/p>\n<p><strong>absolutely diplomatic:<\/strong><br \/>\nDarren Krape, New Media Advisor, describes how the new media are influencing diplomatic work. The first example is of virtual consuls and the second is of a Wikimedia type exercise within the state department called Diplopedia. Not surprisingly the open editing approach of building up intelligence in this way had some sceptism to overcome.<\/p>\n<p><strong>absolutely worldclass:<\/strong><br \/>\nDon&#8217;t forget that May 10th is <a href=\"http:\/\/www.pangeaday.org\/index.php\">Pangea Day<\/a>. People all over the world have been competing to make short films illustrating universal human values. The 24 best films will be shown over four hours at 18 GMT. Which do you like best?
