[Commlist] Entrepreneurial Journalism special issue - Call For Papers

Wed Jun 02 14:31:32 GMT 2021




For those researching Entrepreneurial Journalism:

This special edition of Brazilian Journalism Research interrogates and collates the links between entrepreneurialism and journalism, in emergent journalistic practices and socioeconomic models. The growing recognition of entrepreneurial values and practices in the journalism domain has occurred against a backdrop of interlinked changes in journalism and media in the economic, technological, social, ideological and regulatory terrains. These are most prominent not only in the emergence of new digital actors and new configurations of national and international media landscapes but also in the reframing of normative journalistic practices, organisational structures, modes of production, distribution and financial sustainability. In this vein then, entrepreneurial journalism delineates new relations between actors, publics and domains of activity.

To synthesise available findings and theorising, contributions to this special issue are welcomed in the following areas, but are not limited to:

What structural affordance do digital and platforms play in the link(s) between journalism and entrepreneurialism?

How have social, political and regulatory contexts affected the closeness between journalism and entrepreneurialism, for better or worse?

What are the new market approaches to journalism in these contexts and has it led to the emergence of sustainable models to produce, distribute or pay for journalism?

In what ways does entrepreneurialism contribute to innovation in journalistic formats or the reconfiguration of journalism roles?

How do entrepreneurial competencies play out in daily routines, professional practices or career management for journalists?

How has the concept of a journalist entrepreneur evolved, been redefined or integrated in the past decade?

How have journalists, audiences, public stakeholders or socioprofessional groups shaped and defined our understanding of entrepreneurial journalism?

How is entrepreneurialism shaped, welcomed or integrated in the metadiscourse of local, national or international journalists groups?

What tensions exist for journalist entrepreneurs and how are they shaped or negotiated?

How is entrepreneurial journalism included in journalism curricula and what changes are needed

Exploration of methodological challenges and opportunities to researching entrepreneurial journalism

What challenges and impacts on the operations and sustainability of entrepreneurial journalism did arise within the global sanitary and economic context?

What adaptations are needed by actors in this space?

Both single-country and comparative research are welcome, as well as both theoretical and empirical manuscripts. Quantitative, qualitative or mixed methods approaches can be used also action research or critical theory. Conceptual and theoretical advancements in understanding entrepreneurial journalism are welcomed. The intention is to draw together a theoretically and methodologically rich set of interdisciplinary perspectives to deepen knowledge around these questions. Articles must be 40,000 to 55,000 characters (including references and spaces) submitted by November 30 2021. The BJR accepts manuscripts in Portuguese, Spanish, French and English. Authors submitting in Portuguese, Spanish or French must provide an English translation a month after receiving acceptance for publication.
