About this journal

"More than any other journal, Continuum has shaped the field of Cultural Studies in Australia. An indispensable reference point, and always a great read"
Meaghan Morris, UTS, Australia

"This journal is probably the best kept secret in international cultural studies ... [it has] a long tradition of intelligent, thoughtful, tough-minded ... examination of core issues in media studies and popular culture ... Continuum is the place to turn for fresh and unorthodox perspectives on contemporary cultural issues"
Henry Jenkins, MIT, USA

"There is an urgency and a seriousness to Australian debates about culture and media which cannot be ignored - on questions of indigenous culture, the tensions between critical distance and policy making, Asian identities and diasporas and cultural formations around the Pacific Rim ... Continuum is establishing itself as essential reading, not just regionally but globally"
James Donald, University of Sussex, UK

Continuum is an academic journal of media and cultural studies. For over two decades it has contributed to the formation of these disciplines by identifying new areas for investigation and developing new agendas for enquiry in the fields. The journal has consistently provided a space for important new voices in media and cultural studies, while also featuring the work of internationally renowned scholars. Continuum is now one of the most highly regarded and most cited journals in media and cultural studies.

The journal is of central importance to all scholars involved in the research and teaching of media and cultural studies. It provides vital information and ideas for thinking about the formations of media in culture and the culture of media.
