Dear All
Media Industries is pleased to announce the publication of its latest issue (Vol. 4, No. 1). This issue marks a number of milestones for the journal, including the launch of our new website and partnership with Michigan Publishing.
This issue features submissions from Hong Kong, Poland, and North America, and covers topics as diverse as failed technology companies and art cinema in the 1960s and 1970s. It also includes a special section on Media Industries and Engagement.

Michigan Publishing
Late last year Media Industries moved its online presence to an open-access platform hosted by Michigan Publishing at the University of Michigan, Ann-Arbor. Hosting more than 30 open access journals, Michigan Publishing shares our commitment to making cutting edge research easily discoverable, accessible, and shareable with readers around the world. Michigan Publishing’s platform connects with more than two million readers per year, which we expect will help expand and strengthen the journal’s readership in the years to come.
Call for Papers
Media Industries accepts open call submissions on a rolling basis, and we encourage you to submit your research for our next peer-reviewed issue.
Submissions can address the full spectrum of media industries, including film, television, internet, radio, music, publishing, gaming, advertising, and mobile communications, and query a range of industry-related concerns and processes, such as production, distribution, infrastructure, policy, exhibition, and retailing. Contemporary or historical studies may explore industries individually or examine relations between industrial sectors, employing qualitative, quantitative, or mixed methodologies.
We expect contributions to adopt a critical, rather than instrumental, perspective and engage with relevant media industries literature. We are especially interested in contributions that draw attention to global and international perspectives, and use innovative methodologies, imaginative theoretical approaches, and new research directions. We encourage authors to employ the online format creatively by incorporating audiovisual materials and hyperlinks within their articles.
