New media are no longer new; convergence has come and gone and even come again; policymakers are chipping away at facet after facet of the emerging networked mediascape. But what role should Canadian communication researchers play in this policy environment?

And just whose work is at issue, as a new generation of communications researchers, activists, and decision-makers begins to take its place in Canadian institutions?</p> Thu, 04 Apr 2019 18:46:03 +0000 caitlin.loney@mcgill.ca 42352 at /ahcs
