Interactional Perspectives Related to newer views of culture mentioned earlier, there are also alternative perspectives of intercultural communication competence which perceive culture and intercultural encounters as more fluid and unpredictable in terms of creation, emergence and interaction. hammer (in Fairley, 2000, 9) states “it is not the communication skill per se that contributes to the various adaptation and or effectiveness outcomes… Rather, it is the individual interactants’ judgments of self and other competence based upon the communication performances engaged…” Casmir (in Fairley, 2000) provides a model of intercultural communication that moves away from the unidirectional emphasis of previous models, proposing that the model should mirror the interactionality and participatory nature of real human encounters.	cache/gist-561.pdf	txt/gist-561.txt
