Global Handbooks in Media and Communication
The Global Handbooks in Media and Communication Research series is published by IAMCR and Wiley Blackwell. This series emerged from a recognition that we need to foster the publications of key reference texts that build from and are relevant to global contexts.
With a membership from around 100 countries, IAMCR is uniquely positioned to lead this series, contributing to communication and media scholarship that reflects the global diversity of its participants. Its members promote global inclusiveness and excellence within the best traditions of critical research in the field.
These handbooks are global in the best sense: in scope, authorship and perspective. Intended to move away from reproducing dominant western and northern assumptions, the series is designed to lead a more comprehensive global conversation.
The volumes are designed to highlight the best critical scholarship in key areas of communication and media research. Chapters engage contemporary theories, in historical context, include empirical work drawn across different countries and regions, and advance incisive arguments in clear and compelling presentations.
Proposal Guidelines are available from the Series Editors.
