Aims & Scope

The Journal of Greek Media & Culture is an interdisciplinary 
peer-reviewed journal that aims to provide a platform for debate and 
exploration of a wide range of manifestations of media and culture in 
and about Greece. The journal adopts a broad and inclusive approach to 
media and culture with reference to film, photography, literature, the 
visual arts, music, theatre, performance, as well as all forms of 
electronic media and expressions of popular culture. While providing a 
forum for the close analysis of cultural formations specific to Greece, 
JGMC aims to engage with broader methodological and theoretical debates, 
and situate the Greek case in global, diasporic and transnational 
contexts. The journal aims to set the foundations for a sustained and 
serious engagement with Greek culture and media that will not only 
enlighten particular manifestations, but will have methodological 
relevance and implications that extend beyond its specific field of 
study. Greek culture can thus become a ‘limit case' that tests the value 
and rigour of critical positions in the debate around Europe's cultural 
unity and diversity, and instigates important theoretical and 
methodological enquiries around media and cultural exchange and interaction.
