Media International Australia (MIA) aims to publish a wide variety of articles, that illuminate and critically investigate the central role of media and communications in our world, exploring cultures and industries, governing policies and individual practices, and technology and sociality. While MIA has a particular mission to support the work of scholars researching media and communications in Australia and New Zealand / Aotearoa, the journal also explores interconnections between nations and global concerns, especially in Asia and the Pacific. MIA publishes scholarship in all forms (quantitative and qualitative, applied and abstract, conceptual and creative) selecting contributions based first and foremost on the extent to which authors engage critically with existing scholarly debate, and contribute new ideas, methods, and perspectives. Whether through individual articles or guest-edited feature topics, MIA seeks to define what scholarship of media and communications might mean now and in the future.
