The volume is structured around theoretical and empirical approaches to journalism research and covers scholarship on news production; news content; journalism and society; journalism and culture; and journalism studies in a global context. As journalism studies has become richer and more diverse as a field of study, the second edition reflects both the growing diversity of the field, and the ways in which journalism itself has undergone rapid change in recent years. Emphasizing comparative and global perspectives, this new edition explores:

Current state of the field

Methodological issues

Merits and advantages of the approach/area of study

Limitations and critical issues of the approach/area of study

As such, it is a must-have resource for scholars and graduate students working in journalism, media studies, and communication around the globe.
