[ecrea] 19th Nordic Conference for Media and Communication Research

Tue Nov 04 18:14:55 GMT 2008


NordMedia09 	BODY, SOUL AND SOCIETY
Rethinking Media and Communication Ontologies

13th - 15th of August 2009 
Karlstad, Sweden
www.nordmedia09.se


Call for papers, research panels and posters

The objective of the conference theme, Body, Soul and Society:
Rethinking Media and 
Communication Ontologies, is to scrutinize the triadic interplay between Body, Soul and Society 
in terms of how they have been, and are as of now, understood, implied and implemented in 
media and communication studies and to what ends. How have Body, Soul and Society been 
applied as concepts of “reality”, and on the other hand how have they (re)produced certain 
formations of knowledge? How do these concepts, in their broadest sense, produce certain 
ways of thinking in media and communication studies? How are the thinking around these 
categories bound up with (inter)disciplinary power-fields in terms of scholarly traditions and 
paradigms? A number of Nordic scholars will address issues related to the conference theme in 
plenary sessions throughout the conference.

We encourage the submission of:
a)	Paper proposals (150 to 200 words)
b)	Panel proposals (four to five paper proposals together with an overall panel theme 
proposal)
c)	Poster proposals (150 to 200 words)

Paper, panels and posters will be given within one of the new NordMedia Divisions (se below).
