Tag: Mediapolis: Journal of Communication Journalism and Public Sphere

Mediapolis thus reinstates Olympism as a central theme, while also demonstrating its plural and interdisciplinary character, As this is the journal’s first foray into such a complex topic, the challenge is to open up and create a space for reflection and discussion on Olympism in its relationship with the media, journalism and communication, preferably based on original and innovative empirical research, and extended to multiple visions and themes that question and reflect on Olympism and its intersections with the media, journalism and communication.

Appearing in the 19th century and popularised in the 20th century, football has reached the new millennium as a trend and behaviour setter, assuming itself as a complex “integral social factor” worthy of profound reflection and research by the Social, Human and Communication Sciences.

The challenge of this Mediapolis edition is to precisely demonstrate, once again, how sport can and should be the subject of research in the academic and scientific sphere, given its social plasticity and appeal to interdisciplinary and/or multidisciplinary approaches.
