Flor Enghel ---------- /Glocal Times/, the communication for development web-magazine published by Malmö University’s Master program in Communication for Development, and /Nordicom Review/, the refereed media and communication academic journal published by Gothenburg University, both based in Sweden, have just released their collaborative special issue “Communication, media and development: problems and perspectives”, co-edited by Florencia Enghel (Karlstad University, Sweden) and Karin Wilkins (University of Texas at Austin, US). The special issue is available online at http://ojs.ub.gu.se/ojs/index.php/gt (Glocal Times) and http://www.nordicom.gu.se/?portal=publ&main=info_publ2.php&ex=362&me=2 (Nordicom Review). While the outstanding contents ofthe special issue on both websites are the same, the /Glocal Times/ version includes a dedicated article by Karin Wilkins not included in /Nordicom Review/, and the /Nordicom Review/ version includes an introductory article discussing the motivation for the collection not included in /Glocal Times/.
