Abstract
Started in 1995, Communication Law and Policy is a premier outlet for peer-reviewed research on communication law and policy. But what other outlets are there for research on communication law and policy topics? In particular, which non-law, peer-reviewed journals are publishing articles on communication law and policy? And what topics do these journals cover? The purpose of this essay is to examine communication law and policy research that is being published in non-law, peer-reviewed journals. Examining the past ten years of publications in thirty-six journals, the essay documents the journals that have published research on communication law and policy topics and attempts to analyze these articles to provide a snap shot of the state of research in these journals. Finally, the essay attempts — albeit briefly — to address the direction in which communication law and policy research seems to be progressing in this set of journals and to detail some of the trends we see.
期刊介绍:
The societal, cultural, economic and political dimensions of communication, including the freedoms of speech and press, are undergoing dramatic global changes. The convergence of the mass media, telecommunications, and computers has raised important questions reflected in analyses of modern communication law, policy, and regulation. Serving as a forum for discussions of these continuing and emerging questions, Communication Law and Policy considers traditional and contemporary problems of freedom of expression and dissemination, including theoretical, conceptual and methodological issues inherent in the special conditions presented by new media and information technologies.
