Writing Around the World: A Guide To Writing Across Cultures

The latter emphasizes flowery prose, subjects instead of actions, theoretical implications, and follows an inductive logical structure. The differences between both responsibilities help explain why some cultures prefer clarity when other cultures prefer complexity. The problem is that both writing styles are perfectly acceptable, but only within their given context.
