>A small number of places have unexpectedly become available on the 
>programme of this conference, and scholars with an interest in the 
>subjects involved who would like to participate are invited to submit 
>abstracts.  A full description of the conference is attached.  The 
>organisers are particularly keen to encourage papers addressing the 
>overall role and strategy of large media corporations that operate on a 
>global scale, rather than detailed studies of the situation in China, 
>since the latter are already well represented on the conference 
>programme.  The working language of the conference will be English.
>
>The conference will take place at the Rockefeller Foundations Conference 
>and Study Center, the Villa Serbelloni, in Bellagio on Lake Como.  More 
>information about the Foundation and its programmes, including details of 
>the Villa, can be found at: 
><http://www.rockfound.org/>http://www.rockfound.org.  Due to the 
>generosity of the Foundation, local travel, board and lodging will be 
>provided free for all participants.  The conference is also supported 
>financially by the World Association for Christian Communication and the 
>Journalism and Media Studies Centre at Hong Kong University.  Travel 
>funding is unfortunately not available for scholars from Universities in 
>developed countries, but the organisers may possibly be able to assist 
>those from poorer states.
>
>Please send a copy of your abstract, around 250 words long, to each of the 
>organisers by February 10:
