Communication and Critical/Cultural Studies (CC/CS) is a peer-reviewed publication of the National Communication Association. CC/CS publishes original scholarship that situates culture as a site of struggle and communication as an enactment and discipline of power. The journal features critical inquiry that cuts across academic and theoretical boundaries. CC/CS welcomes a variety of methods including textual, discourse, and rhetorical analyses alongside auto/ethnographic, narrative, and poetic inquiry.
The journal especially invites essays that are intellectually innovative, reflexive, and relevant to democratic concerns in their examination of culture and communication. CC/CS promotes critical reflection on democratic ideals by drawing attention to areas such as:
• Historical, material, and economic conditions
• Nation, Polity, and Private and/or Public Sphere
• Identities (e.g., class, race, ethnicity, gender, ability, sexuality, etc.) and Identity Politics
• Neo-colonial, Post-Colonial, and Globalization Contexts
• Technology and New Media
• Resistance and Protest
In addition to research essays, CC/CS publishes occasional reviews of major new books.
