CfP: IAMCR, Dublin, 25-29 June 2013

The International Association for Media and Communication Research invites submissions of abstracts for papers and panel proposals for the 2013 IAMCR conference to be held from 25 to 29 June, 2013 at the Helix Conference Centre at Dublin City University, Ireland.

Conference theme: “Crises, ‘Creative Destruction’ and the Global Power and Communication Orders”.

The conference theme centres on whether and how the current economic crisis and its attendant gales of “creative destruction” may serve to reshape the geo-political and communication orders. Will this crisis prompt or enable multi-dimensional change in the prevailing forms and modes of mediated communication on the one hand, and in global power structures and control processes on the other?

See the full general call here, or consult the specific CfPs of the individual Sections and Working Groups, as they become available. Deadline for abstracts is 28 January 2013.
