Abstract EN
The present study evaluates whether or not the Algerian secondary school textbook “New Prospects” is culturally-suitable and supports the intercultural principles.
It aims at exploring the categories and types of culture using frequencies and percentages.
The data are collected through the content analysis method using two checklists.
The findings show that even the textbook incorporates a variety of cultural input, it is still inappropriate in the distribution of big “C” over small “c” culture and the dominance of source culture.
This deficiency made it possible that the study shows some changes in the distribution of cultural information in order to meet the intercultural objectives.
