Communication Culture & Critique

CCC provides an international forum for critical research in communication, media, and cultural studies. We welcome high-quality research and analyses that place questions of power, inequality, and justice at the center of empirical and theoretical inquiry. CCC seeks to bring a diversity of critical approaches (political economy, feminist analysis, critical race theory, postcolonial critique, cultural studies, queer theory) to bear on the role of communication, media, and culture in power dynamics on a global scale.CCC is especially interested in critical scholarship that engages with emerging lines of inquiry across the humanities and social sciences. We seek to explore the place of mediated communication in current topics of theorization and cross-disciplinary research (including affect, branding, posthumanism, labor, temporality, ordinariness, and networked everyday life, to name just a few examples). In the coming years, we anticipate publishing special issues on these themes.Questions and concerns of globalization and transnationalism grew even more urgent in an age of the global digital network society. CCC welcomes international scholarship that theorizes mediated communication as part of a series of migratory and mobile circuits, markets, cultures, and connections that complicate conventional maps of state boundaries and the geography of disciplines. This includes scholarship on global marketing and cultural dynamics, and the extent to which these dynamics are increasingly unsettled by shifting flows of culture and capital.CCC seeks to understand and interrogate the changing mediascape and its place in global societies. However, we are less interested in the rhetorical analysis of singular texts or the properties of any particular medium than we are in the complex role of media culture in wider historical, economic, cultural, and political dynamics. At the same time, digital media convergence and emerging practices (such as the rise of #blacklivesmatter and other forms of hashtag activism) present a crucial context for scholars to evaluate and historicize the present moment. Such developments often require us to re-evaluate and retheorize media as objects and agents of political change, and CCC welcomes innovative scholarship and commentary in this vein.

Communication Culture & Critique期刊中文简介

CCC为传播、媒体和文化研究的关键研究提供了一个国际论坛。我们欢迎高质量的研究和分析，将权力、不平等和正义问题放在实证和理论研究的中心。CCC致力于引入多种批评方法（政治经济学、女权主义分析、批评种族理论、后殖民批评、文化研究、同性恋理论），在全球范围内承担沟通、媒体和文化在权力动态中的作用。CCC特别关注与人文和社会科学新兴研究领域相关的关键学术。我们试图在当前的理论化和跨学科研究（包括影响、品牌、后人文主义、劳动、暂时性、平凡性和网络化的日常生活，举几个例子）中探索中介交流的位置。在未来的几年里，我们预计将出版关于这些主题的专题。在全球数字网络社会的时代，全球化和跨国主义的问题和担忧变得更加迫切。CCC欢迎国际学术界将中介交流理论化为一系列迁移和移动电路、市场、文化和联系的一部分，这些使传统的国家边界地图和学科地理复杂化。这包括关于全球营销和文化动态的学术研究，以及文化和资本流动的变化对这些动态越来越不稳定的程度。CCC试图了解和询问不断变化的媒体环境及其在全球社会中的地位。然而，我们对单一文本的修辞分析或任何特定媒介的性质的兴趣，不如我们对媒介文化在更广泛的历史、经济、文化和政治动态中的复杂作用感兴趣。同时，数字媒体融合和新兴实践（如BlackLivesMatter的兴起和其他形式的hashtag活动）为学者们评估和历史化当前时刻提供了一个重要的背景。这种发展往往要求我们重新评估和重新定位媒体作为政治变革的对象和代理人，CCC欢迎这种创新的学术和评论。
