description: Media & Journalism is a pioneering scientific journal in Portugal in the field of media studies and journalism. The first issue was published in 2002 by the then CIMJ - Centro de Investigação Media & Jornalismo / Center for Research Media & Journalism, tackling a "diversity of the themes of its articles, methodologies and reflections" and being "a space that promotes qualified discussion, not only in the academic community, but also among all those interested in the media and journalism in contemporary societies." The magazine is currently published by ICNOVA - NOVA Communication Institute, which has since merged with CIMJ. The journal is still published twice a year (April and October of each year), and is indexed in SCOPUS, Scielo and DOAJ databases, and it follows a rigorous scientific arbitration procedures. Moreover, all of its content is openly accessible and free of charge. Media & Journalism publishes top academic research and is a space for qualified discussions aimed at elucidating the social and political dynamics prompted by media and journalism in contemporary society. The reflections contribute to a more profound and critical knowledge of the various factors, time periods and impacts of the complex phenomena of communication. It seeks to bring together a variety of issues and approaches, from history to sociology, from law to economics, from practices, to technologies and uses, and constitutes an element of reflection and debate within a vast community looking at the peculiaries of the fields of media and journalism.

Cfp (2027) | SCIENTIFIC PUBLICATION AND ACADEMIC CAPITALISM
type: item
description: Cfp (2027) | SCIENTIFIC PUBLICATION AND ACADEMIC CAPITALISM Joint Initiative Comunicação e Sociedade, Estudos de Comunicação, Media & Jornalismo, and Observatorio (OBS)* In a landscape dominated by the hegemony of Big Tech and the rapid spread of Artificial Intelligence — which are reshaping information flows, power dynamics, and the production and dissemination of knowledge — it is vital to reflect on the status, nature, and practices of scientific publishing. In recent decades, the perception of scientific knowledge has been shaped by institutional pressures, including competition for funding, the creation of internal and external evaluation systems that prioritize productivity, the transformation of scientific reputation and quality into quantified bibliometric indicators controlled by multinational publishers, the linkage of academic careers to these same systems of measurement and endemic rivalry, and Labor precarity. Furthermore, the rise of academic capitalism tends to subordinate research to agendas of innovation, impact, and immediate "utility," thereby reducing intellectual autonomy and increasing dependence on public and private funders. In this sense, four Portuguese free-to-read and free-to-publish journals in the field of Communication Studies (published by public universities) – Comunicação e Sociedade, Estudos em Comunicação, Media & Jornalismo, Observatorio (OBS*) – have decided to jointly launch a special issue with the aim of fostering reflection on the policies and logics of sharing scientific knowledge. Over one million articles are published annually in peer-reviewed journal, averaging only 1.5 readers each. Within this framework, debates on alternative publishing models gain prominence, such as those proposed by the San Francisco Declaration on Research Assessment (DORA), which question the centrality of bibliometric metrics and editorial oligopolies. This initiative is driven by a critical reflection by the editors of these four journals, who…

description: CfP |Building the Algorithmic Audience: Shifting Paradigms in Communications, Media, and Democracy EDITORS Berta García Orosa “ University of Santiago de Compostela, Spain, berta.garcia@usc.es Inês Amaral “ University of Coimbra, Portugal, ines.amaral@uc.pt Noel Pascual Presa “ University of Santiago de Compostela, Spain, noel.pascual.presa@usc.es The topic of this call for papers seeks to gather original, interdisciplinary, and empirically grounded research that exploreshow audiences are constructed within digital public spheres. The development of technologies such as artificial intelligence or big data has not only transformed the production, distribution, and circulation of information, but also redefined theways in which audiences are imagined and constructed. In its early stages (approximately 20 years ago), the continuous analysis of big data allowed for real-time audience insights and, subsequently, the prediction of audience behaviour, as exemplified by the Cambridge Analytica case. However, the focus has now shifted towards constructing audiences beforemessages are even produced, particularly in the context of electoral campaigns. While there is a growing academic interest in the effects of media automation and personalisation, there has yet to be aconvergence of studies that systematically examine the epistemological, political, ethical, and communicative implicationsof this new relationship between algorithms and audiences. This gap is even more striking when considering the far-reaching nature of the phenomenon, which spans across journalism, political communication, digital culture, and platformgovernance. In this fourth wave of digital communication, algorithms not only predict audience behaviours but also influence and shape them, giving rise to what has been termed the "algorithmic audience" (Riemer & Peter, 2021). This process ofdatafication has led to new methods of classification, personalisation, and micro-segmentation of audiences, profoundlytr…

description: Seminário "As pressões competitivas na Universidade e no conhecimento" 4 de junho | 14h00 | Online A revista Media & Jornalismo do Instituto de Comunicação da NOVA (ICNOVA) da Faculdade de Ciências Sociais e Humanas da Universidade Nova de Lisboa com a chancela da Imprensa Universidade de Coimbra, promove um seminário em torno das pressões competitivas na Universidade e Conhecimento. A iniciativa terá lugar no dia 04 de junho, pelas 14h00, e terá caráter exclusivamente online. A atual gestão managerial do ensino superior e da ciência exige produtivismo de publicações e obtenção de fundos por parte dos docentes, investigadores e todos os que aspiram dedicar-se ao conhecimento na academia. Em que contexto das relações entre ensino superior, ciência e economia é que surgiram essas exigências? Que tipo de predicados são requeridos aos docentes e investigadores? Quais são os argumentos usados para justificar o produtivismo científico? Qual é o desígnio conferido à ação de publicar e à de conseguir financiamentos? Há um modelo de docente-angariador de fundos-publicador projectado por parte dos organismos dirigentes do ensino superior e da ciência? O seminário As pressões competitivas na Universidade e no conhecimento: o caso das revistas científicas é aberto a toda a comunidade académica e, muito em particular, das Ciências da Comunicação, e procura realizar uma reflexão aprofundada sobre as questões acima anunciadas e outras afins que incidem no modo como nas últimas décadas se pensa o ensino superior e a ciência.

NEW DEADLINE | Cfp: Vol. 26 Nº 48 (2026) Audiences and Intersectionalities
type: item
description: Title: Audiences and Intersectionalities EDITORS: Juan José Sánchez Soriano - Universidad de Murcia, España; juanjose.sanchez4@um.es Rafael Ventura - Universitat de Lleida, España; rafael.ventura@udl.cat Isabel Villegas Simón - Universitat Pompeu Fabra, España isabelmaria.villegas@upf.edu The research topic of this call for papers primarily focuses on studies of audience reception across various intersectionalities, including LGBTIQ+ individuals, people with disabilities, older adults, racialized communities, people with diverse body types, and women. The objective is to analyze how these social groups interpret and engage with their representation in various media formats (TV news, press, reality shows, TV series, feature films, social media, content creation platforms, etc.). Additionally, it is valuable to examine how general audiences perceive media discourses surrounding these intersectionalities. In this way, the goal is to explore both the mirror effect and the window effect within the audience. On the one hand, we define audiences in a broad sense, encompassing all individuals who engage with and interact with media content reflective of their time (Ha, 2020). Moreover, we propose viewing audiences not merely as passive consumers of cultural and media content, but as active agents with a crucial role in interpreting these messages (Livingstone, 2015). Therefore, it is essential to understand and explore how these audiences relate to and engage with such content, as evidenced by recent studies, such as those examining the interpretations of trans individuals regarding their representation in television series (Villegas-Simón et al., 2024). On the other hand, like the society in which it exists, the audience is diverse and heterogeneous (Kristensen & From, 2015). Thus, we are in a context where, historically, the representation of minority social groups has been underrepresented or often constructed through stigma and negative stereotypes (Sánchez-Soriano, 202…

The COVID-19 pandemic and recent wars accelerated a torrent of fake news and other information disorders (Galan et al., 2019, Frau-Meigs et al, 2017), in which social media platforms revealed underlying ambivalences. This is why it is so pressing to consider diverse approaches in the investigation that identifies what, how and where young people from diverse contexts and geographies propose their views and expressions of what is happening in the world. By anticipating normative and/or decolonised definitions of news, we aim to apprehend research that assesses themes related with youth voices and views of the world, their (dis)connection with news and contexts of digital citizenship. The research continually points to a shift from the traditional journalism environments to new opportunities for consumption and production (Clark and Marchi, 2017), fostering participative processes.

description: CALL FOR ARTICLES |JOURNALISM AND FICTION EDITORS: Mar Chicharro-Merayo (Universidad de Burgos) Javier Mateos-Pérez (Universidad Complutense de Madrid) Lorena Antezana (Universidad de Chile) IMPORTANT DATES: New deadline: 2024, February 7th Article submission deadline: January 15, 2024 Editors’decision: May 2024 Expected publication date: May/June, 2024 The history of journalism was first captured on celluloid with the Lumières’1895 moving image of a train steaming into a station. The brothers wished to open "their objectives to the world", to reflect the reality of the planet, to inform. It is well established that audiovisual journalism was born and developed within the framework of cinema. The seventh art fostered and popularized journalism through documentaries and newsreels from around the globe which, together with fiction, were the genres most beloved and followed by the public. Audiovisual journalism was to later establish itself on television, where it spread as informative content, consolidating its place on programming schedules and creating its own audiovisual language. At the same time, journalism was carving out a space for itself in audiovisual fiction through stories showing the profession in practice, events based on real life, or stories featuring journalists themselves -or others from the communication industry-, that have configured a subgenre of journalistic fiction, an area which in recent times has produced some outstanding work, and which has been broadcast on the many different screen formats that make up the audiovisual industry. Thus, films like Citizen Kane (Orson Welles, 1941); Ace in the Hole (Billy Wilder, 1951); All the President's Men (Alan J. Pakula, 1976); The Year of Living Dangerously (Peter Weir, 1982); The Truman Show (Peter Weir, 1998); The insider (Michael Mann, 1999); Good Night, and Good Luck (George Clooney, 2005); State of Play (Kevin Macdonald, 2009); Spotlight (Tom McCarthy, 2015); The Post (Steven Spielberg, 2017); etc…

This call for papers and proposals for thematic issues is related to the editorial changes that Media & Journalism is implementing and that will come into full force in 2024: 1) From the second semester of 2023 onwards, the submission of articles will happen in continuous flow, all year round. This measure aims to privilege the heterogeneity of themes, responding to a need to cover the most salient academic and scientific issues at a given moment, in the disciplinary field of communication sciences. 2) From 2024, the continuous flow modality is now accompanied by the online first publishing policy, thus reducing the waiting times for publication of the different articles that overcome the double-blind peer review and ensuring the timely dissemination of the critical findings generated that are so important for the systematic accumulation of knowledge in the discipline of communication sciences. Articles published in the online first publishing modality will continue to integrate the Scopus database (in which the journal is indexed) under the denomination "Article in Press". All the articles published in this double format, continuous flow and online first publishing, will integrate, in due time, and in definitive publication, numbers of the journal, which will maintain its biannual periodicity. 3) Also from 2024, all articles accepted for publication will be published in a bilingual version (Portuguese and English or Spanish and English), the English version being compulsory.

But despite its omnipresence (or because of it) understanding the impact or role of communication practices in processes of social change is complex. This issue of Revista Media & Jornalismo wishes to shed light on this complex relation, between communication practices and social change, taking into consideration the new developments in technologically mediated practices of communication, but also the challenges, contestations and critiques of dominant paradigms of development and social change. The field of both research and practice around communication and social change has in recent years broadened, and this issue calls for contributions that shed light on the next-generation research questions and communication practices. The concept of social change has also in the past been associated with several paradigms of development and social change with shifting attention given to power structures, international organizations, private entreprise and civil society. The longstanding legacy of two dominant paradigms of development, the modernization and participation paradigm remain strong (Peruzzo 2012, 2014), but the field has expanded in many directions in recent years. It is these new directions in both conceptual development and communicative practices enhancing social change, that this journal issue wishes to capture. Epistemologies of the South, decolonia…

In these two decades, in which new technologies and forms of digital communication have developed processes of revolutionary transformation, the journal has managed to consolidate itself as a peer-reviewed publication indexed in some of the most relevant international databases. Many dozens of national and foreign researchers have collaborated in it, making it a medium for scientific debate that aspires to achieve the maximum accuracy and quality in the publication of each new issue since its foundation in 2002. We are thus celebrating the date with a special issue dedicated to critical thinking about the contribution of media studies and journalism to the understanding of the social, political, economic, and cultural dynamics since then. The call is open for original and systematized contributions on the complex modalities of the tantalizing relationship between media and society. We want to promote a critical edition, able to historicize the academic thought in this field of studies, to debate with new insights the identified problems, and to project creative and engaging solutions for the future. Media & Jornalismo was the first Portuguese academic journal to systematically publish pioneering research in the field of communication sciences. Maintaining the initial focus of being a qualified discussion space to understand the social and political dynamics activated by the media and journalism in contemporary societies, this special issue cannot fail to signal the transformations in the objects of study and theories.

type: item
description: The "populist" label is almost always used to describe a wide range of individuals, parties, and movements, from left to right, who structure their political strategy around a dualistic and simplifying conception of reality. Concept of multiple semantic variations, depending on historical and political context in which it is employed, populism has been identified as a low-density ideology, quite sophisticated in terms of electoral effectiveness, which considers “ in a Manichean perspective -society divided in two antagonistic groups: "the pure people" and "the corrupt elite" postulating the people’s unrestricted sovereignty. The populist assumes strategies of communication and rhetoric that value the perception of the existence of a monolithic people, whose identity would be threatened by the action of enemy groups -what some leaders call "Homeland enemies". In this sense, populism is defined as discourse based on simplistic judgments and easy dichotomies, where the people (the crowd) are told what they hope to hear, polarizing society and dividing citizens between good and bad people. Last decade we have witnessed the emergence of populist governments in several countries around the world, that threaten the rules of liberal democracy, especially regarding individual rights, freedom of expression and press. They are populist and authoritarian governments installed many times, based on the holding of free elections, followed by the attempt of constitutional changes, which aim to perpetuate the leaders in power and to condition civil and human rights. Contemporary populisms, or neopopulisms, seek to distort the notion of "volonté générale du people", adulterating this democratic value, to attack, in the public sphere and through an anti-democratic rhetoric, instances of representation and mediation. The preferred targets have been parliaments and courts, knowledge institutions, scientific communities, social and humanitarian movements, and the media themselves. Thus, …

We encourage the submission of original articles with a historical perspective on journalism or whose focus is on problematizing historical research about journalism, from a methodological point of view. The view of journalism as an actor in history and the theoretical issues arising from the mediatization of history are areas of research relevant to this edition. The media as builders of collective memories and the journalistic outcomes generated around strong, "painful" memories or resulting from historical trauma and expiation processes, are valued in this call. The history of the profession, journalistic institutions, companies, and journalists, in Portugal and in the world, preferably from a relational, cultural, and critical perspective, with a focus on the contemporary history of journalism (XIX and XX century onwards) are relevant for publication within the scope of this issue. More generic historical questions, as long as they are articulated with journalism and the media, such as the history of censorship, of media regulation, the digital, of the technologies and innovation processes, the journalistic coverage of politics, of celebrities, the dynamics and institutionalization of journalistic values, elections coverages, trends and changes in journalistic narratives and the preservation of journalistic outputs themselves, are also research topics which for discussion.

Call for papers for the journal Media & Jornalismo on "Hybridism in the media: new journalistic genres and formats" (closed)
type: item
description: The call for papers for the journal Media & Jornalismo on "Hybridism in the media: new journalistic genres and formats" was opened, with António Granado (ICNOVA-NOVA FCSH, Portugal) and Dora Santos Silva (ICNOVA-NOVA FCSH, Portugal) as publishers. September 20th is the submission deadline. The concept of "genre" and "format" is rooted in academic research on journalistic routines. Without "genre" and "format", we would lose two intrinsic categories of the communication and journalistic ethos. However, the study of this field, beyond its traditional approaches, is not yet fully explored, given the conceptual framework guided by new approaches such as hybridism, transmediality and innovation in media and journalism or in the context of multimodal and multimedia methodological research (Liestol & Morrison, 2016). Understanding the journalistic genre as "the class of units of mass communication that groups different forms and respective types of transmission" (Marques de Melo & Assis, 2016, p.49) and the journalistic format as the shape of the information transmitted by the media (idem, p. 50), these units need, nevertheless, a new reflection and mapping when we face reader reviews, locative media, mini-documentaries in virtual reality, live-tweetings or a simple infographic that is assumed as "the" journalistic format and not the medium. At the same time, the growing transformation of journalistic pieces into what Steen Steensen calls a family of genres that shares a "literary, intimate and adventurous discourse" (2011, p.50), obeying the new news value of sharing on social networks, puts the frontier between opinion and information genres at stake. This blurred frontier is clear, for example, in cultural journalism (Santos Silva & Silva, 2017). In this issue of Revista Media & Jornalismo we suggest a discussion about the most recent advances in journalistic genres and formats framed in two fundamental approaches. First, that of innovation, using the classic definition…

Call for papers for the Revista Media & Jornalismo on "Innovation in the media and in the creative industries"
type: item
description: The call for papers for the journal Media & Jornalismo (Vol. 20, nº 36) on "Innovation in the media and in the creative industries" was opened, with António Granado (NOVA FCSH, ICNOVA), Dora Santos Silva (NOVA FCSH, ICNOVA) and Paulo Nuno Vicente (NOVA FCSH, ICNOVA/iNovaMediaLab) as publishers. October 30th is the submission deadline. Innovation in the media and in the creative industries, such as advertising, design, cinema and photography, video games and educational entertainment software, has been the subject of study in recent years by both academia and industry. This trend has come as a response to the opportunities and constraints “ brought by the emerging creative digital ecosystem. The growing social role of creativity and its economic impact (Howkins, 2001 and Florida, 2002) also imposed the need to rethink media practices as part of creative industries that provide us with symbolic content (Hesmondhalgh, 2007). This multidisciplinary and convergent context triggers a number of research agendas that need to be revisited: first, the innovation typologies proposed to understand products, processes, positions, and paradigms (Storsul & Krumsvik, 2013; Bleyen et al., 2014; Santos Silva, 2016); second, the available case studies related to innovation and entrepreneurship in the media and in these creative industries; next, the emerging journalistic practices and the reconfiguration of their narrative formats, the repercussion that innovation and creative industries have on the curricula of higher education institutions (Crespo, Foa & Cardoso, 2016). These are just a few examples that illustrate the potential of this comprehensive thematic issue, its diversification and, above all, its timeliness and need for discussion. In this issue of Media & Jornalismo, dedicated to the theme "Innovation in the Media and in the Creative Industries", we aim to document and discuss the latest trends and advances in the media and creative industries We encouragecontributions tha…
