PCS Review Dec 2017

This issue of the Philippines Communication Society Review is a collection of research papers, essays and interview focused on stories and narratives of women in diverse contexts and circumstances. In many ways, this is a celebration of women’s voices and insights from a gender perspective, which are too often muted in many studies. – Foreword
