*About the Series*

Media literacy is now established by Unesco as a human right, and the 
field of media literacy education is both growing and diverse. The 
series speaks to two recurring concerns in this field: What difference 
does media make to literacy and how should education respond to this? 
Research and practice has aimed to protect against negative media 
messages and deconstruct ideology through critical thinking, developing 
media literacy through creative production and a social participatory 
approach which focuses on developing active citizens to play a 
constructive role in media democracy.

This series is dedicated to a more extensive exploration of the known 
territories of media literacy and education, while also seeking out 
‘other’ cartographies. As such, it encompasses a diverse, international 
range of contexts that share a conceptual framework at the intersection 
of Cultural Studies / Critical Theories, (New) Social Literacies and 
Critical Pedagogy. The series is especially interested in how media 
literacy and education relates to feminism, critical race theory, social 
class, post-colonial and intersectional approaches and how these 
perspectives, political objectives and international contexts can 
‘decenter’ the field of media literacy education.

The series editors are now seeking new proposals, with a particular 
interest in two areas of research:　

  * Geo-culturally situated media literacy and education research – in
    particular, from the Global South and areas hitherto
    under-represented in the field’s published outputs and so far not
    included in the series; 　
  * New theoretical applications – work with connects particular
    theoretical approaches or movements to media literacy which have
    thus far not been included in the series. 　

　

Please send initial expressions of interest in proposing a title for 
this series to (peteb /at/ wlv.ac.uk) and (jmcdougall /at/ bournemouth.ac.uk).

Following this, authors / editors with proposals meeting the aims and 
scope for the series will be invited to submit full proposals to Routledge.
