Church, Communication and Culture ( CC&C) is an international Open Access journal indexed by Scopus, dedicated to deepening knowledge and understanding of the dialogue between religion, communication and culture in the public area, based on comprehensive data analysis with a theoretical framework or a relation to current events, and paying special attention to the Catholic Church. The journal is published by the School of Church Communications at the Pontificia Università della Santa Croce (Rome) in partnership with Routledge, Taylor & Francis (UK). CC&C is committed to applying critical thought to the communicative dimension of the Catholic Church’s activities to engage society and promote dialogue within cultures. Thus, it publishes theoretical inquiry based on empirical research and intellectual debate, rather than focusing only on technological data.
