Communication and Critical/Cultural Studies is a peer-reviewed academic journal of the National Communication Association covering research on human communication. 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 is published by Routledge on behalf of the National Communication Association and the current editor is Greg Dickinson, professor of communication at Colorado State University.

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.

Unless specifically indicated otherwise, articles in this journal have undergone rigorous peer review, including screening by the editor and review by at least two anonymous referees.
