John Benjamins is pleased to announce that as of 2019, Chris J. Vargo
(University of Colorado, Boulder) will succeed Salma I. Ghanem (DePaul
University) as editor of The Agenda Setting Journal; Theory, Practice,
Critique. Salma I. Ghanem will remain a member of the board.

Agenda-setting theory, the most popular theory in mass communication, has
expanded to other areas beyond communication including business, history,
finance, politics and sports. Dr. Maxwell McCombs (The University of Texas at
Austin) and his research partner, Dr. Donald Shaw (The University of North
Carolina at Chapel Hill), introduced the theory in 1972. The original article
has been cited in more than 6,000 studies. Originally, McCombs and Shaw’s term
“agenda setting” showed a correspondence between the order of importance given
in the media to issues and the order of significance attached to the same
issues by the public and politicians.

While the essence of the definition remains the same, the idea has exploded
into an internationally-recognized, maturing and expanding theory. A research
tradition focused on the interface of the mass media agenda and the public
agenda has been used by scholars/academics, industry professionals and think
tanks globally to explain political, economic, historical, social,
sociological, psychological, sports-centric, health-related, medicinal,
business-oriented, technological and more concepts.

The Agenda Setting Journal: Theory, Practice, Critique focuses on the
theoretical developments that continue in agenda setting and how the theory is
applied to areas outside of mass communication. The journal also represents
the growth and maturity of the communication field as it is also the first and
only to-date theory-based journal in the communication discipline.
