Michigan Publishing

Late last year Media Industries moved its online presence to an 
open-access platform hosted by Michigan Publishing at the University of 
Michigan, Ann-Arbor. Hosting more than 30 open access journals, Michigan 
Publishing shares our commitment to making cutting edge research easily 
discoverable, accessible, and shareable with readers around the world. 
Michigan Publishing’s platform connects with more than two million 
readers per year, which we expect will help expand and strengthen the 
journal’s readership in the years to come.

Call for Papers

Media Industries accepts open call submissions on a rolling basis, and 
we encourage you to submit your research for our next peer-reviewed issue.

Submissions can address the full spectrum of media industries, including 
film, television, internet, radio, music, publishing, gaming, 
advertising, and mobile communications, and query a range of 
industry-related concerns and processes, such as production, 
distribution, infrastructure, policy, exhibition, and retailing. 
Contemporary or historical studies may explore industries individually 
or examine relations between industrial sectors, employing qualitative, 
quantitative, or mixed methodologies.

We expect contributions to adopt a critical, rather than instrumental, 
perspective and engage with relevant media industries literature. We are 
especially interested in contributions that draw attention to global and 
international perspectives, and use innovative methodologies, 
imaginative theoretical approaches, and new research directions. We 
encourage authors to employ the online format creatively by 
incorporating audiovisual materials and hyperlinks within their articles.
