COMMUNICATION

Communication can roughly de described as the exchange of information between two

or more agents though a medium using a predetermined code. Of course we are

oversimplifying things, arent we? If you care to stop by and think critically, a

thousand questions pop up which, if let go unfettered, will capsize the vessel of

conventional wisdom without warning. This, by no means, is unique: most

definitions/descriptions in social sciences do not stand up to a rigorous critical

examination. This, to be sure, is neither a defect not a cause of embarrassment. If

definitions are defied, the subject is to too vast and deep and complex.

As time marches on the nature of communications undergoes sea changes that nobody

can predict. You may not be able to visualize a world without telephones or the

internet. But in relation to the history of the worlds, these gizmos are still

toddling! Has any one been able to predict the giant leaps in information and

communication technology that practically define the present world? The answer is

an emphatic no. Not long ago, we lived without the facilities we wallow in today.

These gadgets, understandably, redefine the very process and nature of

communication. One example that suggests itself is television, and though in a

lesser degree, radio. Until recently, some of us would not include telivisual

discourses in the rubric of communication, bracketing it as a one-way traffic. Will

this objection hold water in an age where we can actually strike up conversations

with persons on the blinking mini screen? How about internet chat? This is the

bottom line: dont get stuck in predefined categories and ideas. As a most vital

component in teaching and research, the new avenues and openings in communications

are of great interest to us. To start you off, we are giving five questions. They

are general in nature and light in content.

1. Which one of the following statements is true for journals?a. They are not a part of the print mediab. They concentrate and industry-specific stream or trade-specific issues, which
