[ecrea] Dissertation prize „Media – Culture – Communication“

Dissertation prize „Media – Culture – Communication“
Deadline approaches on December 31, 2017

The aim of the prize is to honor an outstanding doctoral thesis in the 
topical field of the book series „Media – Culture – Communication“ (in 
German language). The prize is offered by the section „Sociology of 
Media Communication“ of the German Communication Association together 
the the publishing house Springer VS.
The focus of the book series „Medien – Kultur – Kommunikation“ is an 
interdisciplinary examination with the field of media, culture, and 
communication. Whether we think of our own “culture” or of a “foreign” 
culture, we know that they are thoroughly permeated by processes of 
media communication. To what changes are cultures being exposed to? What 
is the relationship between the various media of film, TV, the Internet 
or mobile communication and the different cultural forms? How does 
everyday life changes in the face on an increasingly globalised media 
communication? What skills are necessary in order to function in a 
society that is seeped in media? Questions on medial, cultural and 
communicative change and the challenges that arise there from them are 
the focus of the series  “Media –– Culture –– Communication”. As this 
field of research transgresses the borders of different disciplines of 
social sciences and cultural studies like media and communication 
studies, sociology, political science or literature, the series has an 
interdisciplinary orientation. Its different volumes strive to 
understand the complex interdependency between media, culture, and 
communication in a broad perspective. In doing so, the series makes both 
the current research and theorectical reflections accessible to the reader.
