It follows Graham Meikle (2018) in defining 'activism' as 'the widest range of attempts to effect [progressive] social or cultural change' whilst its understanding of 'the media' includes a broad range of communication platforms, from traditional journalism to digital networks. The issue itself looks at macroand meso-levels of activism with this editorial explaining how contributions reflect different critical and research approaches focusing variously on media as enabling activists to organise; the mediation of activism; and media as a tool through which activists can professionally deliver their strategic objectives.	./cache/work_wga6vrdogzbp5ciuiln23gjmae.pdf	./txt/work_wga6vrdogzbp5ciuiln23gjmae.txt
