"More than any other journal, Continuum has shaped the field of Cultural Studies in Australia. An indispensable reference point, and always a great read"
Meaghan Morris, UTS, Australia

"This journal is probably the best kept secret in international cultural studies ... [it has] a long tradition of intelligent, thoughtful, tough-minded ... examination of core issues in media studies and popular culture ... Continuum is the place to turn for fresh and unorthodox perspectives on contemporary cultural issues"
Henry Jenkins, MIT, USA

"There is an urgency and a seriousness to Australian debates about culture and media which cannot be ignored - on questions of indigenous culture, the tensions between critical distance and policy making, Asian identities and diasporas and cultural formations around the Pacific Rim ... Continuum is establishing itself as essential reading, not just regionally but globally"
James Donald, University of Sussex, UK
