Communication & Sport launch

14 March2013: Today the Institute for Culture and Society held a seminar marking the Australasian launch of the new journal Communication & Sport.

Communication & Sport is a new, peer-reviewed quarterly journal (published by Sage) that fosters international scholarly understanding of the nexus of communication and sport. It publishes research and critical analysis from diverse disciplinary and theoretical perspectives to advance understanding of communication in the varied contexts through which sport touches individuals, society, and culture.

Presenters at the seminar were Professor David Rowe (Institute for Culture and Society, UWS, and Associate Editor, Communication & Sport), and Associate Professor Toni Bruce (Faculty of Education, University of Auckland, and Journal Contributor). The journal was launched by Professor Deborah Stevenson, Associate Pro Vice-Chancellor Research (Arts, Business and Social Sciences).

For more information on the Communication and Sport journal see the Sage website (opens in a new window).

The Institute for Culture and Society is located in Parramatta, “the place where the eel sets down” in Dharug language,
along the north bank of the Parramatta River. It sits on the traditional lands and waters of the Burramattagal people of the Dharug Nation,
who have been stewards and caretakers of these territories since time immemorial, in what today is referred to as Greater Western Sydney,
one of the most diverse cultural communities in the world and home to the largest number of Indigenous Australians in the country.
The Institute for Culture and Society acknowledges the Dharug, Eora, Dharawal (also referred to as Tharawal)
and Wiradjuri peoples as traditional custodians and Indigenous knowledge-holders, whose storytelling serve
as historical record, a form of teaching and learning, a way to care for Country,
and an expression of Indigenous culture and identity.
