Although there are human geographers who have previously written on
matters of media and communication, and those in media and
communication studies who have previously written on geographical
issues, this is the first book-length dialogue in which experienced
theorists and researchers from these different fields address each
other directly and engage in conversation across traditional
academic boundaries. The result is a compelling discussion, with
the authors setting out statements of their positions before
responding to the arguments made by others. One significant aspect
of this discussion is a spirited debate about the sort of
interdisciplinary area that might emerge as a focus for future
work. Does the already-established idea of communication geography
offer the best way forward? If so, what would applied or critical
forms of communication geography be concerned to do? Could
communication geography benefit from the sorts of conjunctural
analysis that have been developed in contemporary cultural studies?
Might a further way forward be to imagine an interdisciplinary
field of everyday-life studies, which would draw critically on
non-representational theories of practice and movement? Readers of
Communications/Media/Geographies are invited to join the debate,
thinking through such questions for themselves, and the themes that
are explored in this book (for example, of space, place, meaning,
power, and ethics) will be of interest not only to academics in
human geography and in media and communication studies, but also to
a wider range of scholars from across the humanities and social
sciences.
