CRITICAL CULTURAL COMMUNICATION

General Editors:
Kent A. Ono, University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign
and Sarah Banet-Weiser, University of Southern California


Editorial Board: Jacqueline Bobo, Kuan-Hsing Chen, Rosa Linda Fregoso, Larry Grossberg, Anghy Valdivia, Barbie Zelizer, Nick Couldry, Herman Gray, Larry Gross, Angela McRobbie, Lynn Spigel, Marita Sturken.

This series builds upon the exciting growth of "critical cultural communication studies" (CCCS) scholarship within the field of communication. The series will include work on historical and contemporary topics that emphasize careful and creative theorization, interpretation, and evaluation of communication phenomena of everyday life, with an emphasis on issues of race, gender, ability, sexuality, class, and nation. It is concerned with communication’s intersections with culture, performance theory, economic and superstructural social organizations, critical ethnography, and media, cyberspace, and digital and visual culture. Scholarship published in the series will address politics, historical context, theory, textual documentation, and self-reflexivity of methodology/purpose/approach. We seek to make communication the center of media studies, and to move media studies to the core of communication.
