The volume "COVID-19, Communication and Culture: Beyond the Global Workplace", edited by Fiona Rossette and Elvis Buckwalter, has just been published at Routledge Business & Economics. This book analyses some of the many upheavals brought about by the COVID-19 pandemic through the lens of the COVID-19–communication–culture interface, with a particular focus on the new global, virtual workplace. It brings together a pluridisciplinary and multinational team of researchers from the fields of sociology and organisational studies, discourse analysis, linguistics, communication and cultural studies, and includes testimonials from actors within the professional sector such as international managers, consultants and foreign trade advisors.
