This paper formally introduces communication into transaction in order to deepen the study of the contract theory.As one of the indispensable factors in transaction,communication helps the trading parties to reach a legally binding contract and enables the parties to arrive at a common understanding of the implicit rules.The second function is vital for the implementation of the legal contract that is bound to be incomplete.We lay out a theoretical framework for the study of communication and apply it to investigate how communication can mitigate the negative effects of cultural differences in the case of foreign direct investment.Several empirically testable propositions are established and policy implications are discussed in this paper.
