SCLCR Projects

The Society for Conceptual Logistics in Communication Research is involved in several projects. Many our own members execute and others SCLCR sponsors.

Some of our projects include:

Journal of Concepts in Communication

Journal of Concepts in Communication

A major project of SCLCR is the Journal of Concepts in Communication. SCLCR was founded to analyze the uses of research terminology. As SCLCR's journal, JCC is designed to encourage extended critical discussions of "conceptual controversies." It publishes contributions concerning research problematics — articulations of questions researchers develop for the conduct of their projects.

An open access journal leveraging the power of modern web technologies, JCC is a home to transdisciplinary research in human communication. We are quite proud of our Advisory Board composed of highly regarded members of academic and professional circles.
