This introduction article concludes by encouraging media scholars to embark on more studies within a field theory framework, as the ability of the comprehensive theoretical work and the ideas of a reflexive sociology is able to trigger the good questions, more so than claiming to offer a complete and self-sufficient sociology of media and inherent here also new media.",
