Abstract

During the last 60 years of research, Ownership, Technology, Content and Context were aspects of communication media, which have been treated rather separately, as take-off points for different kinds of theorizing. In this paper, based on his Response to the Award of an Honorary Degree from the University of Bucharest on 4 May 20l0, Prof. Elihu Katz reviews the changes he has witnessed during his exceptional academic life as a communication scholar, and indicates certain issues that academia should address in the future.
