Dictionary of Selected Terms of Media Studies
Journal Title: Communication Today - Year 2018, Vol 9, Issue 1
Abstract
used in today’s media studies and journalism. A team of authors consisting of 15 scholars was involved in creation of the dictionary; together they co-authored and processed 75 terms on 250 numbered pages. The terms reflect the most recent, socially and academically discussed, and at the same time, in many cases, very up-to-date body of knowledge related to the aforementioned fields of study, and that, as the editors of the publication add, “at a time when we have been witnessing radical technical, technological, economic and sociocultural changes in social reality ...” (p. 5). The selection and the number of entries are a bit unusual, at least when we take into account routine processing of dictionaries. However, as the authors of the publication point out, the intentionally selected terms are related to the research project supported by the Scientific Research Agency of the Ministry of Education, Science, Research and Sports of the Slovak Republic and Slovak Academy of Sciences (VEGA) No. 1/0611/16 called Multiplatform Concepts of Journalism in the Context of the Development of Digital Technologies in the Media Environment of the Slovak Republic. The currently reviewed publication is one of the key scientific results of the given project. The team of authors managed to create an excellent review dictionary not only for media scholars and academics, but also for students of Bachelor’s, Master’s and Doctoral study programmes in several fields related to media communication, journalism and marketing communication, and for media professionals as well.
