For over three decades, Cross-Cultural Research has made unique contributions to cross-cultural scholarship. In the 1990s CCR expanded its editorial focus to include peer-reviewed articles that describe cross-cultural and comparative studies in all human sciences.
Each issue of Cross-Cultural Research examines topics that span societies, nations and cultures, providing strategies for the systematic testing of theories about human society and behaviour. Research reports, review articles, methodological studies, bibliographies and discussion pieces offer you a wealth of information on cross-cultural issues
Without ethnography, cross-cultural comparison would not be possible. But without cross-cultural comparison, we would know nothing of what may be universal or variable across human cultures, or why variation exists. Cross-Cultural Research Methods is an introductory teaching tool that shows students and potential researchers how to describe, compare, and analyze patterns that occur in different cultures, that is, how to form and test anthropological, sociological, psychological, medical, or political hypotheses about cultural variation.

In recent years language learning has been increasingly viewed by some SLA researchers as an essentially social-psychological process in which the role of a wider sociocultural context should not be marginalized. This volume offers a valuable contribution to this growing body of research by providing theoretical considerations and empirical research data on themes such as the development of intercultural communicative competence, the role of English as a lingua franca in intercultural communication, and the place of cultural factors in SLA theorizing, research, secondforeign language teaching and teacher training.
The aim of this book is to explain in clear terms some of the main methodological approaches in legal research. This is an edited collection, with each chapter written by specialists in their field, researching in a variety of jurisdictions.
This book will be of particular interest to PhD students in law, but it will also be of use to undergraduate dissertation students in law, LL.M Research students as well as prospective PhD students and early year researchers.
