Communication, Information and Media has become one of the most dynamic, exciting and innovative fields of study in our universities today yet it is also one of the most controversial. Never before have the media played such an extraordinarily important role as they do in late modern society; they have become venues not only for information but also for contested social and political configurations, for ideological mobilisation, and for leisure and consumerism. How can we cope with this frenetic rate of change, and how is it affecting curricular models in our institutions?.

Conjunctions and Disruptions: Communication, Information and Media Studies in Europe seeks to answer these questions by offering a transnational, multilayered and transdisciplinary reflection on communication studies in the European Higher Education Area: transnational because it includes contributions from six European countries and eight different higher education institutions; multilayered because it explores different aspects of the curriculum at different levels, ranging from curriculum design to research and teaching activities; and transdisciplinary because it addresses key issues in communication and media research and teaching that challenge traditional disciplinary divisions and venture into hybrid curricular models.

El presente libro constituye la primera aportación de una serie de reflexiones elaboradas por el equipo de investigadores y profesores que trabaja en la Universidad de Deusto desarrollando una línea de investigación denominada «Visiones alternativas de la economía». Las diferentes aportaciones contenidas en este libro hacen referencia a un tema central: la capacidad de la economía de mercado, y concretamente la concepción liberal de la misma, para responder a la aspiración más básica del ser humano, que no se puede reducir a la mera abundancia de bienes sino al desarrollo humano integral, en su sentido más auténtico, y contemplado tanto en su dimensión individual como social.

La reflexión en torno «al sentido de la vida», que el Forum Deusto presentó en el volumen anterior, continúa a través de otras «vidas con sentido». Se dan cita ahora la bioética, la literatura, la cocina, la educación, la ciencia, la fe y la vida dedicada a la Iglesia, y a través de ellas se comprueba el acierto de las palabras del profesor Frankl: «La vida exige a todo individuo una contribución y depende del individuo descubrir en qué consiste».
