Communication History



History is one of the most well-established themes in the study of communication. Recent years have witnessed an intensification of this interest in history. Those doing historical work in communication now have a designated home in the International Communication Association: the Communication History Interest Group (CHIG).

The notion of 'communication history,' in this interest group, pulls together no fewer than three major areas of research: I) The History of Communication, including Media History, II) The History of the Idea of Communication, and III) The History of the Field of Communication.



The purpose of this Interest Group is to promote theory, research, and professional education in the history of communication. This Interest Group will bring together scholars who face similar intellectual and methodological challenges.



To join the group, you must be an active member of the International Communication Association. To join ICA, visit <http://www.icahdq.org/membership/joinus.asp>http://www.icahdq.org/membership/joinus.asp. To renew your membership and join our Interest Group, visit <http://www.icahdq.org/membership/renewmembership.asp>http://www.icahdq.org/membership/renewmembership.asp.

Our next annual conference will take place in Singapore, May 2010.



Kind regards,



Stijn Reijnders
