Media Dialogues

About the Journal

Media Dialogues is an international, peer-reviewed scholarly journal focusing on research into media, communication, and dialogue in contemporary societies. The journal provides an interdisciplinary venue for the analysis of how media and communication processes shape public discourse, social relations, political dynamics, and cultural change.

While maintaining a comparative and international orientation, Media Dialogues pays particular attention to Central, Eastern, and South-Eastern Europe, including contexts characterized by political and institutional transformation, social change, polarization, conflict, and evolving media systems. The journal also welcomes contributions that address communication and information through an economic lens, such as the economics of information, political economy of media and platforms, value creation and distribution in communication processes, incentives and costs shaping information flows, and the role of institutions and power relations in media markets.

The journal publishes original research articles and theoretical and analytical papers employing diverse methodological approaches. Topical areas include media and public discourse; journalism studies and media ethics; political communication and public relations; digital media, platforms and datafication; media representations, narratives and identities; communication, conflict and dialogue; and media systems in transitional and post-transitional societies. Media Dialogues is committed to academic rigor, editorial independence, and openness to diverse scholarly perspectives.
