It relies heavily on articles media scholars and media practitioners have written on how the sides can work together for the good of society. The contributions to this volume represent the first effort to look at praxis in terms of the dual dynamic of communication and how its two pillars can work together to address relations and interactions from critical perspectives of media and journalism practice and research. The result will lay important groundwork for scholarship on this new and increasingly important phenomenon.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e'The book seeks to address the apparent divide between those who study journalism and those who practice it. . . . it is refreshing to gain an insight into critical practitioner perspectives on the work of academics within a scholarly publication such as this. Likewise, greater prominence to media and journalism scholarship that does not meet the utilitarian demands of ‘relevance’ within the mainstream media would be another step forward in this conversation.'\u003c\/p\u003e -- John Steel, European Journal of Communication\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eIntroduction: Theory Is Not Enough: How to Convert Media and Journalism Studies into Relevant, Useful and Practical Research\u003cbr\u003e Leon Barkho\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003ePart I: What Media Practitioners Say\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eChapter 1: Journalists and Scholars: A Short Manifesto\u003cbr\u003e Vin Ray\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eChapter 2: Towards a New Relevance: Why the New Media Landscape Requires Journalists and Media Scholars to Forge a Genuine Partnership for the First Time\u003cbr\u003e Matthew Eltringham\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eChapter 3: Journalism’s Practitioners and the Academy: Must They Eternally Live in Different Universes?\u003cbr\u003e Kevin Marsh\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eChapter 4: Why Practitioners Resent Academic Writing\u003cbr\u003e Leon Barkho\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eChapter 5: When the Media Criticize the Media\u003cbr\u003e Åke Pettersson\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eChapter 6: Bridging the Chasm: Can Theory Help Media and Journalism Practitioners\u003cbr\u003e Leon Barkho\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003ePart II: What Media Academics Say\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eChapter 7: Towards a Praxis-based Media and Journalism Research\u003cbr\u003e Leon Barkho and Ibrahim Saleh\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eChapter 8: From the High Ground to the Swamp: A Model for Immersive Journalism Research\u003cbr\u003e Sarah Niblock\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eChapter 9: Minority Media as Intercultural Dialogue: Towards a Communicative Praxis\u003cbr\u003e Fackson Banda\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eChapter 10: Inside Out\/Outside In: (Auto-)Ethnographic Work on the Position of the Newspaper Sub-editor\u003cbr\u003e Astrid Vandendaele\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eChapter 11: Photojournalism and the Role of Images as Part of Design and Branding\u003cbr\u003e David Machin and Lydia Polzer\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eChapter 12: Notes on a Practice-based Media and Journalism Research  from a Critical Cultural Perspective\u003cbr\u003e Marcela Pizzaro\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003ePart III: Who Gets It Right?\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eChapter 13: Journalists Do Live in a Parallel Universe: A Response to Practitioner Critiques of Journalism Academics\u003cbr\u003e Jairo Lugo-Ocando\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eChapter 14: Linking Theory to Practice: Changing the Approach of Media and Journalism Research\u003cbr\u003e Leon Barkho\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eChapter 15: Media Academics versus Media Practitioners: Who Gets It Right?\u003cbr\u003e Leon Barkho\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Intellect Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51042266874199,"sku":"9781783207459","price":60.26,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/towards-a-praxis-based-media-and-journalism-research-9781783207459","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
