The Analyses of Different Diet culture’s Influence on the Sino-US Business Negotiations_英语论文

摘要

随着经济全球化的发展和商务业务方面往来频繁，商务谈判的重要性变得明显。随着中国加入WTO，中国与其他国家的联系越来越频繁。美国是最大的经济实体，也是中国最大的商业伙伴。商务谈判在商务合作中扮演着重要的角色。为了取得谈判的成功，首先要赢得尊重和互相信任。商务宴会是显示尊重的最佳机会。并且在正式的商务谈判之前或之后，商务宴请是不可避免的。所以了解彼此的文化差异非常重要。了解饮食文化更是重要。饮食文化基本上可以反映一个人或一个国家的民族特色和民族个性。饮食文化已经成为社会文化生活的重要组成部分，是人们物质生活和精神生活的一部分。越来越多的人开始分析饮食文化对社会和人与人之间的沟通的影响。
