Digital intercultural experiences are shaped by broader sociocultural dynamics, including migration, corporate discourse, and social activism. This volume offers a comprehensive exploration of 'digital interculturality', drawing on insights from intercultural communication studies, sociolinguistics, and adjacent fields. The contributors examine how digital technologies--such as social media platforms, translation apps, and artificial intelligence--mediate intercultural encounters, identities, and meaning-making processes. Together, these perspectives advance our understanding of the entanglement of intercultural communication with digital technologies, laying the groundwork for 'digital interculturality' as an emerging interdisciplinary field.
