Examining identity in relation to globalization and migration, this book uses narratives and memoirs from contemporary authors who have lived 'in-between' two or more languages. It explores the human desire to find one's 'own place' in new cultural contexts, and looks at the role of language in shaping a sense of belonging in society.

Intercultural communication : the creation of a new discipline.
Intercultural communication, a university discipline which appeared in the United-States at the end of the 60s, is the scientific study of the barriers to communication between individuals of different cultures and sub-cultures.
This field of research opened when the two trends relating to culture and communication overlapped from 1965 onwards. Intercultural communication, in order to build up its object and to assert its legitimacy, relies on a certain number of subdisciplines derived from contemporary, cultural anthropology : cognitive anthropology and symbolics in particular. It also gives great importance to the phenomenological alternative which inspires the social theory of today (ethnome-thodology applied to the school sector, for instance).
Intercultural communication is particularly interesting for the world of education, international management and all the institutions concerned with the improvement of interethnic relations.
The intermixing of populations in the world of today will more and more impose the development of serious scientific studies in this field.

The European Union is an interesting political space for analyzing the points of contact between research on international communication and research on intercultural communication. Indeed, the European Union (EU) is obviously with 28 countries (soon 27) a space where unfolds an international multilingual communication. It is also a political institution that seeks to create an intercultural public sphere to legitimize a "united in diversity" political structure (EU motto). Is this institutional goal achieved? Can the communication policy implemented by the EU executive (the European Commission) for 500 million Europeans help to create a space for mediation and engagement that is common as well as respectful of cultural diversity? The purpose of this article is to answer this question. ; L'Union européenne (UE) est un espace politique intéressant pour analyser les points de contact entre recherche sur la communication internationale et la recherche sur la communication interculturelle. En effet, l'Union européenne est évidemment, avec 28 pays (bientôt 27), un espace où se déploie une communication internationale multilingue. C'est aussi une institution politique qui cherche à faire advenir un espace public interculturel devant permettre de légitimer une construction politique « unie dans la diversité » (devise de l'UE). Ce but institutionnel est-il atteint? La politique de communication mise en œuvre par l'exécutif de l'UE (la Commission européenne) à destination de 500 millions d'Européens peut-elle favoriser la création d'un espace de médiation et d'engagement qui soit à la fois commun et respectueux de la diversité culturelle? L'objet de cet article est de répondre à cette question.
