We did that primarily because Blackwell's has a high level entrepreneurial outlook. They're willing to take at look at projects that have a bit of risk, but in the end could serve academic populations very well… since we joined with Blackwell I've been brainstorming with them about numerous projects we could do that would help the world understand a little bit more about a) the communication discipline, and b) give more opportunities for our members to get their research out there so that it could be used by government, policy bodies, or by other people just interested in how people communicate.The Encyclopediawas one of those projects they agreed to take a look at. The ICA had done something very similar 20 years ago, but the whole scholar/academic world has gotten much more international, so we felt that it was time to re-do that whole project, and Blackwell was willing to tackle it and work with me on establishing a good, strong editorial board.
