Popis: The evolution of technology has gradually transformed, over the years, the media organizations worldwide. Media convergence, regarded as a new perspective in journalism, which combines profession, technology and new practices in the newsroom, brought significant changes to the activity and structure of the media organizations. This article provides a qualitative analysis of the theoretical perspectives the scientists chose to apply in their studies of the media organizations adopting and implementing convergence during the period 2003-2013. The purpose of this study is to find out whether the academia and the research community have kept up with the evolution of media technology and to discover the extent to which the transformations to the profession and to the media industry called for new conceptual approaches.
