What has the internet ever done for us? Standard Time talk show S1E12
Channel: Eurozine
Date: 2024-02-29

At a time when online publishing was deeply contested, a group of people came together and took a leap of faith. Following a series of conferences, the #Eurozine network was established in 1998. Today, with over 100 partner journals across #Europe, one goal remains: to turn it into a starting point for #European debate. With English being the lingua franca and in the face of multimedia, the fight for space continues.
