The main guidelines of the Journal editorial policy are oriented to the concepts of "citizenship" and "participation", understood from a communicational point of view, involving processes and devices of knowledge circulation and opinion formation in the political field in general, and in specific areas of public policy such as health, education, science culture, public opinion, gender and identity.

As examples of priority interests areas one finds the following: journalism and public opinion; citizen, participatory and public journalism; responsibility and accountability of institutions, governments and companies; media and public sphere; social movements in the areas of environment, science, health, ecology, culture, identity and gender; media and political parties; political representation; new forms of online participation; methods of analysis of participation; digital democracy; media, deliberation and participation; communitarian communication; communication and development; policies of recognition and comparative studies of communication in different geographical and cultural contexts, among others.

"Communication Studies" is intended to include various approaches, methodologies and lines of research, defining itself as a journal of Communication Sciences with an interdisciplinary profile and open to a plurality of methods.

The journal "Communication Studies" accepts articles in different areas of Communication Sciences, journalism studies, advertising, public relations, media studies, reception studies, political communication, communication theories, communication epistemology, sociology of communication and other related fields.
