1) Culture is one’s identification with and acceptance into a group that shares symbols, meanings, experiences, and
behavior. The context is an essential element of the communication process; culture perhaps is the most intrinsic context

Page 5

for a communication process. Every culture has its worldview; its way of thinking of activity, time, and human nature; its
way of perceiving self; and its system of social organization. Knowing each of these helps individuals assign meaning to the
symbols. Because our communications are deeply influenced by our culture, hence communication and culture are
inseparable. While culture is a common code of conduct we learn and share based on the norms inherent in our traditions
and customs; it is the process of learning and sharing that requires communication. On the other hand, communication
requires coding and symbols that must be learned and shared. Every cultural pattern and every single act of social behavior
involves communication. Culture is transmitted from one generation to another through enculturation. It is the process
through which we learn the culture we are born in. People around us such as our parents, immediate relatives, kith and
kin, teachers, religious institutions teach us our culture. Another process of learning culture is that of acculturation, in
which we learn about a culture other than our native culture which can lead to modification of our native culture.
Communication across and between cultures, called cross‐cultural communication, has two facets that are intercultural
communication and intra‐cultural communication. Cross‐cultural communication is communication across two cultures; the
comparison between two cultures. Intercultural communication generally refers to face‐to‐face interactions among people
of diverse cultures. Intra‐cultural communication is generally communication among different individuals of the same
culture.

1) In the history of development economics, Gross National Product (GNP) has been thought of as a key indicator in
measuring the development of a nation. Before the 1970s, economic development was evaluated in terms of the GNP and
per capita income, which stood alone as the ultimate standard of national progress and prosperity. However, over the years,
researchers have found that the GNP is not a single indicator that can be used to measure development. A breakthrough in
the thinking about development came with the work of Mahbub ul Haq (1995) and Amartya Sen (1999) which led to a re‐
definition of the development process from one that focuses solely on economic growth to one in which the fruit of
economic growth benefits the population in terms of higher literacy rates and education levels, better health and nutrition,
higher levels of social cohesion and social skills, and more equality (Van Der Gaag, 2011). In a similar line of thinking, the
United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) has developed the Human Development Index (HDI), which goes beyond
narrow monetary income definitions of development. The Human Development Report states that human development is a
process of enlarging people’s choices. Consequently, a new view of development has emerged which Todaro (1997)
describes as a multidimensional process involving major structural changes in social, attitudes, and national institutions, as
well as the acceleration of economic growth, the reduction of inequality and the eradication of poverty. Simply stated,
development refers to the process of improving the quality of life of all human lives. For instance, a major effort in this
direction was the development of a composite ‘Physical Quality of Life Index’ (PQLI). This index was based on a country’s
life expectancy, infant mortality rate, and literacy rate (Morris, 1979). Overall, good development measurement requires
researchers to develop indicators that consider economic, social, political, environmental, and technological concerns.
