International in scope and open to scholars and researchers from all over the world, Communication & Society is an online journal founded in 1988. Formerly known as Comunicación y Sociedad, it has been published entirely in English since October 2014, with the option of a Spanish version. Articles are open access. They are published monthly, following an early access model. Two different issues collect these articles, one in June and another in December. Each June we publish a monographic special issue with the assistance of guest editors.
Its main goal is to make outstanding research contributions to the field of communication from a variety of perspectives, both theoretical and empirical. It includes journalism studies, advertising, public relations, broadcast and film studies, political communication, ethics, media history, communication policy, political economy, marketing and new media, among others. Methodological rigor and valuable research results are required for review and publication. The evaluation process follows the requirements of double-blind peer review.
