Sinopse

"Face Value Culture" explores the pervasive influence of "face"—a culturally shaped sense of social esteem—on human behavior across diverse societies. The book argues that understanding face dynamics is crucial in today's globalized world, as it governs daily social exchanges and impacts everything from interpersonal relationships to international negotiations. It examines how different cultures, from East Asia to Latin America, manage face through unique strategies like "face-saving" and "face-giving," revealing the underlying values that drive these behaviors. The book highlights that face isn't just about reputation; it's a fundamental human need for social validation and belonging.

 
The book is structured in three parts, starting with the theoretical foundations of face, then moving into cultural variations in face management, and finally, exploring the consequences of face dynamics in various settings, such as workplaces and international negotiations. By synthesizing cross-cultural research, the book reveals both universal patterns and culture-specific adaptations in face dynamics. It provides practical strategies for navigating face-threatening situations, ultimately aiming to improve intercultural communication and foster stronger, more respectful relationships. This approach makes it a valuable resource for anyone seeking to enhance their social competence in diverse global settings.

    When one thinks of the world’s first cities, Sumer, Memphis, and Babylon are some of the first to come to mind, but if the focus then shifts to India, then Harappa and Mohenjo-daro will likely come up. These cities owe their existence to India’s oldest civilization, known as the Indus Valley Civilization or the Harappan Civilization, which was contemporary with ancient Mesopotamia and ancient Egypt and had extensive contacts with the former, making it one of the most important early civilizations in the world. 
    The dynasty that came to power in the late 4th century BCE is known today as the Mauryan Dynasty, and although the ruling family was short-lived and their power was ephemeral, its influence resonated for several subsequent centuries and spread as far east as China and into the Hellenistic west.  
    Bactria was the seat of several different kingdoms during the course of many centuries, but none were as successful as the Kushan Empire, the dominant political entity in Central Asia from the early 2nd century BCE until the early 3rd century CE, during which time the Kushan rulers played a major role in the first iteration of the trade networks known collectively as the Silk Road. 
    From 1206 to 1526, the Delhi Sultanate controlled all of northern India and, during its apogee of power, nearly all of the Sub-Continent, making it one of the most impressive empires not only in India’s long history, but also in the history of Islam. The Delhi Sultanate was comprised of five dynasties that expanded their borders, and Islam, at sword point, but also through diplomacy and trade.  
    The Mughals, a group with Turkish and Mongolian roots, adopted elements of Islamic culture and meshed them with native Indian culture and even Western European culture. When the British conquered India in the mid-19th century, they had the benefit of inheriting the Mughal system, a suitable template for rule over a land as vast and diverse as India.

    The war in Ukraine has taken its toll on the stability of the Balkans by reshuffling regional geopolitics and reviving diplomatic competition between the West and Russia. Since the summer of 2022, growing tensions between Kosovo and Serbia have raised concerns about a possible Russian involvement and pushed the European Union to react promptly. By brokering a new normalisation agreement, the West seeks to prevent new hotbeds in Europe and push Russia one step back from the Balkans. Meanwhile, the Russian invasion of Ukraine has given new momentum to the integration process of candidate states, making EU membership a tangible goal rather than an unattainable dream.
    Will the EU be able to stabilise the Balkans? Will Russia continue to exert its influence in the region? Are Belgrade and Pristina on the eve of a new phase in the normalisation process?
