About the Journal
==============
Mediální studia / Media Studies is a peer-reviewed journal based in 
disciplines of media and communication studies. Nonetheless, it also is 
open to contributions from close research fields such as cultural 
studies, sociology, social and cultural anthropology, gender studies, or 
linguistics. We publish original research papers investigating media 
texts or mechanisms of their production or ways of their reception.
We especially welcome papers focused upon media in the countries of 
Central and Eastern Europe which do not separate the region from its 
wider social or political ties. We endeavour to emphasise the dynamics 
of local-global knowledge on media and its mutual connections. Also for 
these reasons, we prefer texts written in English. In exceptional cases, 
however, we publish also manuscripts in Czech or Slovak.
