Aims & Scope

In the current academic climate there is an ongoing repositioning of media and cultural studies outside the Anglo-American axis. The peer-reviewed Journal of African Media Studies contributes to this repositioning by providing a forum for debate on the historical and contemporary aspects of media and communication in Africa.

This title is indexed with Scopus and the Web of Science’s Arts & Humanities Citation Index (AHCI) and Social Sciences Citation Index (SSCI).
