Global Media Journal: Mediterranean Edition encourages articles that offer fresh perspectives to historically entrenched concerns with the relation between communication and emancipatory struggles for democratic life. Articles concerned with issues within the broad frame of critical theory, communication and media policy, political economy of media studies, cultural studies, peace communication, peace journalism, studies in new technologies, the development of alternative public spheres, Diaspora, and interpretive communities, are strongly encouraged. Other areas of crucial import for future issues include studies on gender, ethnicity, inter-communal and cross-cultural conflict: each as they interact with, shape and are shaped by, media representations, ideologies, nationalisms, institutionalized routines, and issues of ownership and control. The Mediterranean Edition accepts articles for blind peer review on a continual basis and is published twice yearly in May and December.
