On Differences of Business Etiquette Between China and America
Chapter One Introduction
This chapter serves as an introduction to the organization of the present paper in which both the significance of and the need for the study of business etiquette between China and America are also considered.
1.1    Need for the Study
Traditional studies on business etiquette are often from the connotation of etiquette itself. Some researches focus on business etiquette’s basic definition, principle and its specific application in certain business occasions. Actually, these studies leave out one thing that globalization has made modern economic and cultural communication so intensive that cross-cultural business communication has also become an inevitable trend that can never be stemmed. Business etiquette, as an important factor affecting communication, is a set of conduct standards that people have to conform in their daily business practice, as well as an inseparable communication tool in modern business activities. Business people from different countries who usually observe different business etiquette might encounter pergences and conflicts in common commercial activities, so it is urgent to study business etiquette from the angle of cross-cultural communication.
In recent years, attention has been focused on business etiquette differences between different countries such as Sino-Japanese, Sino-European and Sino-American. After China’s accession to WTO and other international organizations, business communication between China and the West is becoming more and more frequent, especially the Sino-American business. Under the background of cultural persity, it’s of great significance and necessity of learning and understanding other countries’ business etiquette. China and America, respectively as world’s biggest developing country and world’s biggest developed country, are both playing their own parts in the commercial world. However, business people from two countries usually have different cultural backgrounds like values, concept of time, diets and behaviors. As a result, disputes and pergence will lead to the failure of business practice and these problems can’t be ignored. Studying the differences in business etiquette between two countries enables us work out the solutions and strategies for tackling these problems. 英文论文_中美商务礼仪差异研究(2):http://www.751com.cn/yingyu/lunwen_29185.html
