Journal of Children and Media is an interdisciplinary and multi-method peer-reviewed publication 
that provides a space for discussion by scholars and professionals from around the world and 
across theoretical and empirical traditions who are engaged in the study of media in the lives of 
children. It is a unique intellectual forum for the exchange of information about all forms and 
contents of media in regards to all aspects of children’s lives, and especially in three 
complementary realms: Children as consumers of media, as media producers, and representations 
of children in the media. It is committed to the facilitation of international dialogue among 
researchers and professionals, through discussion of interaction between children and media in 
local, national, and global contexts; concern for diversity issues; a critical and empirical inquiry 
informed by a variety of theoretical and empirical approaches; and dedication to ensuring the 
social relevance of the academic knowledge it produces to the cultural, political, and personal 
welfare of children around the world.
