Be Realistic, Demand the Impossible: Reflections on Bob McChesney's Academic Impact and the Future of the Communication Field
2025
Overview
Writing about Robert W. McChesney--Bob, as most of his students, collaborators, and colleagues came to know him--is both daunting and deeply rewarding. To address his intellectual and political contributions, as well as the transformative impact he had on the field of communication research, is to take on a task of unusual scope. His career spanned decades, his scholarship reached publics both inside and beyond the academy, and his anticapitalist political commitments grounded his research in a way that challenged many dominant trends in academia.
