The Handbook comprises three main elements: historical accounts of the development of key concepts and research traditions systematic reviews of media organizations, discourses, and users, as well as of the wider social and cultural contexts of communication practical guidelines with sample studies, taking readers through the different stages of a research process, and reflecting on the social uses and consequences of research.
