Thematic Section Editors: Gabriele Balbi, Berber Hagedoorn, Nazan Haydari, Valérie Schafer & Christian Schwarzenegger
The occasion for bringing together prior interests and combining theoretical and empirical understandings of the reasons why and the different modes how media persist over time was facilitated by the European Communication Research and Education Association (ECREA) virtual post-conference.
