About the Radio Studies Network

The Radio Studies Network was founded in December 1998 by lecturers and researchers to encourage sustained, lively and critical study and research in radio, and seek ways to improve its academic and cultural status.

We would like to see radio on the agenda of a wide range of disciplines including anthropology, cultural studies, economics, history, media studies, politics, sociology, and performing arts. Whatever aspect of radio you are interested in, or whatever discipline governs your approach, you are welcome to join. We welcome overseas membership of the Network.

The activities of the Network are co-ordinated by an annually elected steering group.
