Professor Gumpert is Series Editor for Hampton Press series in Urban
Communication.
URBAN COMMUNICATION Editor: Gary Gumpert
Cities are inherently places of communication, meeting spaces for interaction and/or observation. The nature of any communication
venue is altered by social and technological circumstances and the urban environment is altered, in turn, by changes in communication
patterns. We need to understand relationships among these significant forces--communication, technology, and the urban, suburban,
rural environment--as they shape each other. Communication systems and urban social systems can be examined at multiple levels
as scholars and planners examine interaction in public spaces, neighborhood communication patterns, and urban systems of transport.
The focus of this series is on social relationships in a swiftly changing communication environment. Media coverage
of urban issues, conflict resolution and contested urban space, visual communication, rhetorical dimensions of urban life,
film and the city, journalism, the ethnic press, local media and public policy are just some areas of relevance. This book
series will provide a forum to explore and discuss the challenges created by the intersection of communication and urban life,
focusing on what communication scholarship has to offer for enhanced understanding of cities and for the development of a
public policy that takes into account communication needs and practices.
