Past Publications
Our program publishes two series that focus on the role of general and intercultural communication in the world of (international) business.
We are honored to have many renowned experts from around the world participate in our "Freiberger Beiträge zur interkulturellen und Wirtschaftskommunikation: A Forum for General and Intercultural Business Communication" because the list of contributing authors reads like a Who’s Who of communication and intercultural communication:

Freiberg Research Papers: Publications of Graduates / Students
In order to also create a forum for lesser known researchers, we decided to launch a second series with the help of our university press, Freiberg Research Papers. This series publishes primarily the work of graduate business students who have written on communication’s role in the world of (international) business. These texts contain some interesting applications of general and intercultural communication principles in the realm of business because they are written not from the perspective of communication specialists, but rather from the perspective of business students.
