The Middle East Journal of Culture and
Communication, now in its second year, is a new
platform for interdisciplinary scholarly work
that explores transformations in culture,
communication, and politics in the Middle East
and North Africa. The Journal aims to challenge
the traditional paradigms used to understand
media and the Middle East, seeing
â??communicationâ?? as extending beyond the
study of media in the traditional sense.
MEJCC welcomes contributions from international
scholars engaged with the Middle East within
various academic disciplines and using diverse
approaches, whether as articles or reviews of
films, books (including novels), and exhibitions.
MEJCC is seeking papers critically addressing
(though not exclusive to) the following:
- the old and new media in all their forms (the
broadcast media, the print media, electronic
media, and film), whether in or about the Middle East
- processes of communication in geographical
space in the Middle East (including street art, posters and architecture)
- popular culture in the Middle East
- the relationship between the media (including
interactive communication technologies) and
political and social processes in the region
- the cultural practices through which power is
expressed and politics is performed.
MEJCC is published by Brill. The first issue of
the Journal can be accessed free at
<http://www.brill.nl/mjcc>www.brill.nl/mjcc.
MEJCCâ??s latest issue deals with political
communication in the Middle East; the
forthcoming issue with media, geopolitics and
public diplomacy; and the following one with Palestinian cultural studies.
Contributions should be original work which has
neither been simultaneously submitted for
publication elsewhere nor published previously.
Manuscripts should be submitted through
Editorial Manager, which can be accessed via:

Informal queries can be addressed to the
