Exploring intersections of media, law, communication and crime

Intersections of media, law, communication, and crime abound inthe contemporary world. And although universities tend to orga-nise media, law, communications and criminology into discretedisciplines or group them together in schools or departments, thisarticle strives to show how there is incredible merit in exploringthose intersections, not least because as the small sample of articlescontained in this special issue of Communication Research andPractice demonstrates, to do so opens up possibilities for interdisci-plinary dialogue and research opportunities. It is in that spirit thatthis article discusses, often drawing on empirical examples andcases, the ways intersections between media, law, communication,and crime play out across time and space.
