Communication, Information and Media has become one of the most dynamic, exciting and innovative fields of study in our universities today yet it is also one of the most controversial. Never before have the media played such an extraordinarily important role as they do in late modern society; they have become venues not only for information but also for contested social and political configurations, for ideological mobilisation, and for leisure and consumerism. How can we cope with this frenetic rate of change, and how is it affecting curricular models in our institutions? Conjunctions and Disruptions: Communication, Information and Media Studies in Europe seeks to answer these questions by offering a transnational, multilayered and transdisciplinary reflection on communication studies in the European Higher Education Area: transnational because it includes contributions from six European countries and eight different higher education institutions; multilayered because it explores different aspects of the curriculum at different levels, ranging from curriculum design to research and teaching activities; and transdisciplinary because it addresses key issues in communication and media research and teaching that challenge traditional disciplinary divisions and venture into hybrid curricular models.
