Issues in Mass Communication: A Non-Western Perspective
The conference aims at
dealing with issues in mass communication in a non-Western perspective.
In the field of communication, similar to many other fields of science,
theories, concepts and
technology originates in the West, i.e. Anglo-American world. However, major
social transformations
that Western theories and concepts attempt to explain occur in the East. Thus,
the main aim of
the conference is to bring the dominance of Western theories and concepts on
communications in the
East into academic discussion and re-evaluation. This conference marks the
beginning of a new
perspective that grasps the developments in communications and their
sociological, political and
economic repercussions in their local conditions.

The Conference is planned to be held in 14-15-16 March 2007. Discussions will be open to public. For further information please contact
