Public Scholarship in Communication Studies
Abstract
This chapter addresses public scholarship within philosophical and critical traditions in communication studies. Although distinct subfields of communication studies, these traditions offer fruitful avenues for research emerging from collaborations with communities and directed toward achieving public goods. This chapter interprets public communication scholarship from the perspective of these approaches and highlights possibilities for action by reviewing the public communication research done by scholars within philosophical and critical approaches.
