Disrupting and Consolidating Critical Public Relations Research: Status and Outlook

细分领域

How might we describe the state of the field currently, and what is the outlook for the discipline?

How do place, geography, and cultural context shape PR practice and professional identity?

How can public relations industries, practitioners, and academics respond to the widespread abuse of communication power, in online and offline contexts (e.g. disinformation from elite actors, polarizing discourse, harmful rhetoric in relation to specific groups, erasure of different voices)?

In what ways does public relations enable or constrain accountability, especially in sustainability communication?

What are the emerging dynamics of influence and strategic communication in government, business, and tech sectors?

How could critical public relations research support civic and third sector actors that counter the polarization and division in contemporary societies?

How do diversity, equity, inclusion, and queer perspectives challenge dominant norms in public relations?

What theoretical and methodological innovations are emerging from critical and post-critical turns in the field?

How have key tipping points—historical, political, or epistemological—reconfigured the discipline of public relations?
