About this book

James Carey once wrote that there was no history of mass communication research. This volume by David W. Park and Jefferson Pooley responds to that remark, and to the field's long neglect of its own past.

The collection mixes essays that scrutinise the field's historiography with new histories that trace its institutional development and its exchanges with other academic disciplines. It treats the remembered past of the field as something to examine critically rather than accept.

Scholars of media studies, communication history and the history of the social sciences will find the volume useful for seeing how the field remembers itself.
