Mediate the middle: moving with and beyond dichotomies

Join us in celebrating the launch of Bart Cammaerts’ latest textbook, Dichotomies in Media and Communication Theory — a bold and original exploration of the key theoretical tensions that shape our media landscape.

This innovative book introduces students and scholars to eight central dichotomies—such as private/public, control/freedom, and virtual/real—revealing their significance in understanding media, communication, and power in contemporary society. By examining both sides of each pair and their complex interrelations, Professor Cammaerts offers a fresh framework for engaging with critical theory and the democratic importance of media.
