Paper types

Studies are based on original research, solving the issue raised 
empirically, theoretically or methodologically. In other words, the 
studies may investigate various concepts or terminology of media and 
communication studies, or, they may corroborate upon accepted or 
innovative methodological procedures, or, they may examine different 
facets of media operation on empirical data. The recommended length of 
the studies is 6000-8000 words, including footnotes and references with 
an abstract of up to 150 words, up to 10 keywords, and brief information 
about the author up to 100 words.

Essays are contributions shorter in length and more open in its research 
design. They explore upcoming or current media trends or events and 
discuss their relevance. Or, they ruminate upon different conceptual or 
methodological approaches rather than adhering to and defending just the 
single one finally chosen. The recommended length of the essays is 
3000-4000 words, including footnotes and references with an abstract of 
up to 150 words, up to 10 keywords, and brief information about the 
author up to 150 words.
Interviews introduce inspiring personalities within the media and 
communication field, both from academia and practical operation: 
researchers, pedagogues, but also journalists, editors, or media 
managers. The recommended length of the interview is 3000-4000 words 
including footnotes and references. The interviews include brief 
information about the interviewee.

Book reviews introduce and critically evaluate new books emerging within 
the field of study. The author may choose to review one monograph or 
approach more of them together, usually if close in its key topic, 
methodology or conceptual basis. The book reviews clearly sum up issues 
dealt with and they use such overview as a basis for further critical 
investigation. The recommended length of studies is 2000-4000 words, 
including footnotes and references.

Reports inform about interesting events connected with media life 
(conferences, workshops, festivals, summer schools etc.). Also, reports 
may introduce some basic findings of a research project just closing in, 
without a thorough description of its theoretical or methodological 
grounding. The recommended length of studies is 1000-2000 words, 
including footnotes and references.
