Games and Culture: A Journal of Interactive Media
http://www.sagepub.com/journal.aspx?pid=11113

Games and Culture: A Journal of Interactive Media is a new, quarterly international journal (first issue due January 2006) that aims to publish innovative theoretical and empirical research about games and culture within the context of interactive media. The journal will serve as a premiere outlet for ground-breaking and germinal work in the field of game studies. Games and Culture's scope will include the socio-cultural, political, and economic dimensions of gaming from a wide variety of perspectives, including textual analysis; political economy; cultural studies; ethnography; critical race studies; gender studies; media studies; public policy; international relations; and communication studies. Other possible arenas include: a) Issues of gaming culture related to race, class, gender and sexuality, b) Issues of game development, c) Textual and cultural analysis of games as artifacts, and d) Issues of political economy and public policy in both US and international contexts. Of primary importance will be the bridging of the gap between games studies scholarship in the United States and in Europe. This has been added to Games Resources Subject Tracerâ„¢ Information Blog.
