Aim & Scope

Turkish Review of Communication Studies (TURCOM), which was initiated in 1992 as "Marmara Journal of Communication", aims to publish top-quality national and international research in the field of media and communication studies. Since its foundation, the journal has been administrated by the editorial board members from the Marmara University Faculty of Communication. In our journal, we aim to benefit from and reflect on the multidisciplinarity of our faculty, with sub-disciplines including Public Relations, Advertising, Journalism, Digital Media, Television, and Film Studies. TURCOM aims to facilitate an international platform for scholars to analyze media and communication with distinct perspectives.

TURCOM publishes articles, commentaries, and book reviews to initiate a multidisciplinary ground within media and communication studies. We welcome authors to submit articles that would cover one or several sub-fields located under media, communication, and cultural studies in diverse subjects, research problems, and methodologies. We are particularly interested in problematizing and questioning contemporary developments in the media in Turkey and across the globe and encourage the authors to contribute by cross-cultural perspectives. TURCOM is published biannually in June and December and indexed by Emerging Sources Citation Index (ESCI), EBSCOhost, DOAJ, TRDizin, and Ulrichsweb. Articles submitted to the journal go through the process of anonymous double-blind peer review. No fees are required to submit articles.
