• Resumen

  • Communicology is the science of human communication. The essay tracts the nearly one hundred year development of the concept of communicology into a formal discipline in the human sciences. The chronology of publications begins in the 1920s with the phenomenologist Edmund Husserl and develops up through 2010 with current publications specifying the application of theory and practice in such area as intrapersonal, interpersonal, group, and cultural communicology throughout the world. A focus of this disciplinary development is the foundation in 2000 of the International Communicology Institute.
