Volume 6, Issue 1
2009
Welcome to our general issue for 2009. There was also a special guest-edited issue published in 2009, on global public relations, but as the steady stream of quality submissions on public relations topics of interest exceeded the parameters of just the special issue topic, we've continued to publish our regular omnibus issue as well.
Below you will find a diverse range of refereed articles, covering everything from educational issues to new media to research methods and theory-building. Please read, enjoy, and contribute to the debate and to the development of the discipline with your own articles or discussion pieces.
