Abstract

Can Contribute to theTheories of Mass Communication This paper aims to a) to review those major theories of media and mass communication that can be applied and tested in Kazakhstan;b) identify/map the key current and future research topics for Kazakhstani scholars that can fill the gaps in the international scholarly discourse within media and communication studies. The authors argue that if local media and communication scholars want to participate in the global scholarly dialogue, they have to a) identify their theoretical location on the global map of media and communication research works; b) be aware of recent key developments within the specific research field; c) build dynamic relationships with global scholarly community via pro-active presenting and publishing research outputs internationally.
