new research agenda for an approach to a non media-centric, materialist

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.</span></font><span lang=EN-GB><o:p></o:p></span></p>
