摘　　要：Intercultural communication as one of the activities of the mankind should be coordinated and regulated by ethical roles; it is the essence of intercultural attitude. Establishing this ethic of intercultural communication can be completed either with the outer compulsive force such as international laws, WTO roles, etc that have to be obeyed passively, or through the active and self-conscious behaviors of the communicators with self-discipline so as to control and guide the process of intercultural communication. The latter is more worthy to be advocated in the world today, where a globalization process with multipolarization and pluralization as its characteristics is going on. In such a situation, the developmental tendency of continual intercultural communication requests communicators to assume the intercultural attitude for looking on state of affairs and solving problem. This attitude is conductive to forming ethic of intercultural communication and reflects this ethic in itself as well; it can bring up the rational intercultural communication to promote common development of world cultures. It consists of five basic elements： mutual respect, tolerance, cooperation, intercultural understanding and intercultural learning. These five elements make up of a whole of supplement each other.跨文化交往同其它任何一种人类活动一样需要伦理规则来谐调和规范，这就是跨文化态度的实质。跨文化交往伦理的形成，既可以借助交往者须被动遵守的外在约束力，亦可通过交往者自觉、自律的主动行为来控制、引导跨文化交往的进程。後者是当今更值得倡导的一种跨文化交往的形式。在世界多极化、多元化发展的全球化过程中，跨文化交往活动频繁的发展趋势要求交往者以跨文化态度看待事物、解决问题，这种态度有助于跨文化交往伦理的形成，本身也体现了这种伦理，能造就合理的跨文化交往以促进世界文化共同发展。它包括五个基本要素：相互尊重、宽容、合作、跨文化理解和跨文化学习。它们构成相辅相成的整体。
