Submission by January 15, 2010

Launched in 2008 and published by Routledge, Chinese Journal of Communication (CJoC) is an English language scholarly publication aimed at elevating Chinese communication studies along theoretical, empirical, and methodological dimensions. The CJoC is covered by Current Abstracts and Ebsco databases. This special issue of the Chinese Journal of Communication (CJoC) is to address the impact and nature of emerging media in Chinese communities or comparison with other countries or ethnic communities. Emerging media is defined as message delivery vehicles achieving higher utilization among the general population, but has neither universally accepted technical standards for content transmission and display, nor established operation models such as revenue sources and content strategies. Examples of emerging media are digital television, webcasting, podcasting, cellular phones, IPTV, blogs, social media and networking sites, etc.

China is at the forefront of emerging media. The number of Internet users in China is the largest in the world and Chinese consumers are among the most avid users of media technologies. The adoption of these media can have significant political, social, and economic implications on Greater China and present challenges to the current media industry structure there. The use of the emerging media by overseas Chinese can reconnect them to the mainland and connect them to the Chinese around the world.
