> Community Communication Section Call for Papers
> The Community Communication section focuses on media that originates,
> circulates and resonates from the sphere of civil society. Broadly
> defined, this is the field of communication that exists outside of
> the state and the market (often non-government and non-profit), yet
> which may interact with both. We seek to advance research on the
> objectives, practices and dynamics of community-based media,
> including issues of localism, politics, socio-economics, language,
> ethnicity, gender, or other interests and intersections. We welcome
> both theoretical and applied research, as well as research conducted
> at both micro and macro levels of analysis. Our concerns include
> issues of media access, participation and reception; media projects
> undertaken by marginalized and underrepresented groups; development
> and support of community-based media institutions and
> infrastructures; production and distribution of community,
> alternative and activist media; and theoretical contributions to the
> research, evaluation and practice of community communication.
>
> The next IAMCR will be in Tapei. We encourage member to make
> suggestions on panels and sessions. We would like to have at least
> one session that focuses on a recent major work in our area and that
> offers select panelists an opportunity to respond to this work. We
> would also like to reach out to area scholars in East Asia to present
> research in our area. Please send any relevant names or contact
> information to facilitate outreach.
>
> In addition to research papers, the section welcomes the submission
> of panel proposals on current issues and problems in the field.
> Applicants should submit a 500 word abstract that describes the topic
> of their research and its significance, their theoretical framework,
> and their methods. Submissions in the author's native language must
> also include an English translation. Panel proposals should include
> a well-defined statement of purpose, a complete list of panel
> participants, and full abstracts for each presentation. All
> submissions should include a paper title, as well as authors' names,
> institutional affiliations and full contact information (mailing
> address, email address, and telephone numbers). Submissions should
> be sent to the section chair and may not be submitted to any other
> IAMCR division. All divisions will automatically reject any papers
> submitted to more than one division.
