This volume investigates the intersection of communication studies and historical inquiry to determine how media practices shape our understanding of the past. Edited by Barbie Zelizer, the collection brings together prominent scholars to examine the methodological challenges of integrating these two disciplines. The contributors utilize historical case studies and theoretical frameworks to argue that communication is not merely a subject of history but a fundamental lens through which historical processes must be analyzed.
