1 A critique towards face consideration in high and low context culture Proposed by Ting-Toomey Stella in 1985, a communication professor at California State University, Fullerton, face-negotiation is the theory that explains how different cultures affect communication and the conflict management. Ting-Toomey (1985) argues that, because the consistence of unique norms, beliefs and traditions that affects the identification of its member, each culture provides different frame of reference for individual or group reaction. In facenegotiation theory s core assumptions, Ting-Toomey (1985) further states that, people in all cultures try to maintain and negotiate face which is a public image of individual or group, that society sees and evaluates based on cultural norms and values in all communication situations. There are three dimensions of face: Autonomy face: A desire to appear independent, in control and responsible Fellowship face: A desire to be seen as cooperative, accepted and loved Competence face: A desire to appear intelligent and capable (Miller 2005) However, each culture prefers different dimension of face. According to Harry Triandis, a psychologist at University of Illinois, there are two types of cultures: individualistic and collectivistic (cited in Griffin 2008). Providing the conceptual linkage among cultural variability dimensions, face concerns, facework behaviors and conflict style (Ting-Toomey 1988, cited in Gudykunst 2003), face-negotiation theory helps mediators, theorists and so on in finding the best and effective communication across culture. In order to illuminate the theory, I will use two television commercials of Pepsi in different cultures which are the US and China to examine how the dimensions of face affect the plan of these TVCs in the individualistic and low collectivistic culture.
2 Figure 1: Reproduced from BBDO New York 2009 The first TVC is made from New York Agency, about a clumsy penguin that wishes to be like the bird but he always falls down in an icy island. As he is very sad about himself, he goes to a warehouse and recycles the junks. After several days, with the exciting music playing in the background, he gets out of the warehouse confidently with a machine on the back and then, he and the machine starts to fly into the sky in front of the surprise of other penguins and the birds. He drops into a pool and slips into a chair. Then, he sees a Pepsi bottle and drinks it. The TVC ends with the girl who is sitting next to him throws for him a shrimp and the slogan appears I can with Pepsi logo. In contrast, the second TVC takes place in a pagoda in China and has a traditional music playing in the background. A Western kid comes to a pagoda which places in a high mountain and knocks the gate. An old monk opens the gate and lets the kid come in. After walking around and seeing many monks, the kid gets a monk to shave his hair and wears the monk clothes. After that, the kid starts to learn martial art. However, the old monk (might be the master) seems to be disappointed about the kid when the kid cannot do keep balance or punch to a stone shield. The kid also feels disappointed about himself. However, after many years, the kid grows up and he is in the center of many monks and begins the test. Now, he can complete the test easily by breaking the bricks, woods and stones by hands and legs. After the test, the master puts a can of Pepsi up and so do every one. The boy (now becomes a monk) imitates others to put up the Pepsi can and drinks. After drinking, he looks at everyone again and sees a weird symbol in their heads and the flat, then looks at the Pepsi can again, he shouts: Ahhhhh and knocks his head into the can. The master finally smiles, and when the boy stands up, all the monks come and cheer him up. The TVC ends with Pepsi logo and a slogan Ask for more. With the same idea of promoting Pepsi, the application of these TVCs above is quite different. While the first TVC emphasizes the importance of being independent and in control for the clumsy penguin, the second TVC highlights the importance of being accepted and loved for the
3 foreign kid in the Chinese pagoda. As the penguin feels sad because he cannot fly like the bird, he goes to the warehouse and makes an innovation that can helps him feel more confident and fly to somewhere else. After arriving at the pool, the clumsy penguin now becomes very cool and independent in his own life so that he can enjoy drinking Pepsi and relax in the swimming pool. The slogan I can also enhances the idea of being independent and in control for everyone. On the other hand, while the foreign kid seems to be sad and lost because he cannot do the training properly, he has tried so hard to pass the test in order to get accepted and loved by his groups. After having the symbol on his head, the kid seems to be happy when everyone is coming to cheer him up. The slogan Ask for more enhances the joys and happiness of drinking Pepsi and sharing fun with the others. The differences between two TVCs might be due to the cultural effects. The first TVC is for the US, which has individualistic culture, emphasizes the goals, values and needs of individual over the in-group, while the second TVC for China, which has collectivistic culture, highlights the goals, values and needs of the in-group over the individual. According to Ting-Toomey & Cocroft 1994, people in individualistic culture will be more concerned with autonomy face, which is a desire to appear independent, in control and responsible and self-face maintain. Ting-Toomey 2005 further explains that, the individualistic culture values the personal rights, freedom and the do it yourself attitude. Thus, in order to communicate effectively with the US audience, the producer has to make a TVC to be appropriate with its culture which is strengthening the idea of autonomy face through the use of Pepsi. In this TVC, the message from the producer to the audience might be drinking Pepsi can help people to be more confident about themselve so that they can take adventure for being independent and in control of their own life. For the people in collectivistic culture, they will be more concern with connection with other people (Ting-Tommey & Cocroft 1994). For this reason, with the use of creative humor, the producer of Chinese monk TVC has highlighted the values of fellowship, which is a desire to be seen as cooperative, accepted and loved through drinking Pepsi. The message in this TVC to the audience might be drinking Pepsi can enhance the connection between everyone. In this TVC, the imfortance of the in-group differentates the values of individualistic and collestivistic culture. According to Triandis 1988, in-group are groups that are important to members and groups for which individuals will make scarifies (cited in Gudykunst 2003). Although the groups can be the same for both cultures, the influence of groups in collesticvistic culture are stronger and last much longer than in individualistic culture (Gudykunst 2003). The strength of the two commercials above is that they have applied different dimension about face in order to fit with different cultures and communicate effectively with its audience. Moreover, the US is a low-context culture which is meaning derives from the verbal content of the message (Hall 1976), so message of the ad can be predicted easily through the music background and penguin s actions without cultural knowledge requirements. However, as China is a high-context culture which is verbal content of the message is only part of the meaning.
4 Interactions in these cultures require an understanding of social situation and relationships among participants and cultural norms (Hall 1976), the limitation of the Chinese monks TVC is that for people who are not familiar with collectivistic culture, they can be misunderstood that the monks are not friendly and isolating the kid because he is forgeiner. In addition, as the kid is from an individualistic culture, the audience is not clear that whether he just wants to be stronger or accepted and loved by the monks.therefore, in order to avoid conflict and make the message is more effective and persuasive, the producer should consider to express the needs of the kid like in the first TVC, the penguin looks at the birds and starts to imitate them. As different culture has different method to negotiate face, face-negotiation theory provides a critical look at intercutural communication for theorists, PR practitioners, managers, mediators, trainers, and consultants to find the best and effective communication with their clients. However, face-negotiation theory can becomes limited in a complex situation. For instance, although I live in collectivistic culture, I ve studied in an international university for two years, my concern about face can get mixed between three dimensions of faces, which are autonomy, fellowship and ccompetence. For some situation like in a job interview, I would concern more about being independent, responsible and smart for the employer, whearas in daily life, I would concern more about the connection with my friends.the mixed dimension of face also can happen with the young generation today who can get exposed to the mass globalization trend and get affected somehow by the Western culture. Therefore, I look forwad to see an updated version of face-negotiation toward complex communitcation situations. In conclusion, in spite of some limitations addressing above, many scholars has agreed that face-negotiation theory is a fundamental tool in analysing commnunication across culture.
