ABSTRACT:
This paper was presented at the 'Communication and Cultural Change' conference to address the multidimentional character of today's communication studies. Referring to Caroline Marvin's argument about the changes that communication studies has undergone during the last 30 years, the paper argues that cummunication has become a more active area in relation to sociology. It can be infered from Marvin's argument that it was Communication in the 1960s that borrowed its theoretical and literature from sociology. We argued that it is now sociology that is more relied on communication studies and it is because of the importance of culture and its elements that is dealt with mostly in the field of communication. To give some examples, concepts such as semiotics and linguistic processes are borrowed from communication studies to address social issues. Cultural studies is also a field in sociology which works mostly with theories and concepts that were originally developed in communication studies. In terms of methods we can now work with content analysis and discourse analysis to understand the social world. In the end we posed a question for the future of cummunication studies; Is it becoming a multidimentional discipline?
