http://mwc.sagepub.com/
Publisher: SAGE Publications
Media, War & Conflict will map the shifting arena of war, conflict and
terrorism in an intensively and extensively mediated age. It will explore
cultural, political and technological transformations in media-military
relations, journalistic practices, and new media, and their impact on
policy, publics, and outcomes of warfare.
It will publish substantial research articles, shorter pieces, book reviews,
letters and commentary, and will include an images section devoted to visual
aspects of war and conflict. The journal will bridge communications,
political science, sociology, history, and other disciplines.
It solicits submissions not just from academics but also professionals in
journalism, the military and other areas related to this subject matter. The
editors are looking for innovative, readable work that raises new issues as
well as articles that examine new facets of traditional topics.

* Contemporary and historical war reporting
