"Communication Theory Today" offers a wide-ranging overview of
current theoretical work in media and communication studies. It
provides the methods and the theoretical resources for
understanding the dramatic changes which are taking place in the
sphere of information and communication in the late twentieth
century. At the same time, it shows how these changes are linked to
broader developments - both at the level of global transformation
and at the level of everyday interaction, where individuals
negotiate matters of identity, knowledge and shared meaning.
Interdisciplinary in character, the contributions to this volume
are concerned to show how the key questions in communication theory
and research intersect with central themes in social theory and
critical cultural studies.
The contributors, all of whom are internationally renowned in
their respective fields, include Ien Ang, Deirdre Boden, James M.
Collins, Klaus Krippendorff, William Leiss, Denis McQuail, William
Melody, Joshua Meyrowitz, Mark Poster, Majid Tehranian, John B.
Thompson and Tuen van Dijk.
