N2  - Some of the most important and influential political economists of communication working today explore a rich mix of topics and issues that link to the heritage of political economy work, policy studies and research and theory about the public sphere; Several of the most important and influential political economists of communication working today explore a rich mix of topics and issues that link work, policy studies, and research and theory about the public sphere to the heritage of political economy.
