new research agenda for an approach to a non media-centric, materialist communications
studies, which defines its concerns as encompassing not only the movement of
information, but also that of people and commodities. Building on current
work in cultural geography, and on the `spatial turn’ in cultural
studies, David Morley will argue for a new paradigm for the
study of communications which attends to both its material and symbolic
dimensions and re-integrates the study of transport systems within its remit,
thus returning the discipline to the full range of its classical concerns.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
