Dates: March 26-29, 2008 Location: San Francisco, CA Call for proposals deadline: June 1, 2007 Website: http://www.isanet.org/compendium/icomm.html
The International Communication Section encourages submissions of proposals and panels for the ISA 2008 meeting in San Francisco to take place on March 26-29. The overall theme of the meeting is "Bridging Multiple Divides". There are many ways that panels or papers may conceptualize bridging divides
Themes may cross disciplinary or sectional boundaries. Ideas might include:
- Security, Intelligence, and Communication
- Bridging Space, Place, Time and Distance Through Information and Communication Technologies
- Digital Divide(s) - Gender, Region, Age, Ethnicity, Accessibility, Wealth
This year ISA is encouraging innovative panel formats that are creative and different from the usual chair, papers, and discussant format. Ideas include town hall style formats and debate style formats.
Panels may include papers that address a similar issue using different methodological tools.
We are interested in all cutting edge work in International Communication; you need not be a member of ISA to propose a paper or panel. For a list of general topics within the international communication subfield, you can go to http://www.isanet.org/compendium/icomm.html.
Please go to http://www.isanet.org/sanfran2008 to read a detailed statement of programmatic theme by the overall conference chair and the ISA President
Deadlines: Paper Proposals - June 1, 2007 (the form requires only an abstract) Panel Proposals - June 1, 2007 (note that you can, if you wish, leave one spot open for the IC program chair to suggest a paper presenter to complement the panel) Poster Proposal - June 1, 2007
Feel free to contact us with any questions or ideas, and please forward to others who might be interested.
