[ecrea] Call for papers Warsaw - Political Communication in the New Technology`s Era

Fri Sep 24 11:51:14 GMT 2010



POLITICAL COMMUNICATION IN THE ERA OF NEW TECHNOLOGIES





CALL FOR PAPERS




 

The Polish Communication Association and the Institute of Political Science at the University of Warsaw invites proposals for the conference entitled “Political Communication in the New Technology`s Era” that is going to be held in Warsaw (Poland),  22 - 23 September 2011.

 

New media technologies provide new ways to communicate and thus create more sophisticated and detail driven election campaigns. Internet, new media, large databases and faster polling methods are only some of the means  used to create powerful images of politicians and give them increased support. This phenomenon is relevant for both `old`, well developed democracies and the young democracies of Central and Eastern Europe. However, while in the West there is a long tradition of investigation into political communication, scholars from Central and Eastern Europe only began that kind of research two decades ago. All of this created a strong need for a comparative studies which may bring about an understanding of the similarities and differences in political communication and new technology usage in different parts of the world. 

 

Conference submission:

 

We ask scholars and practitioners to submit an abstract of max. 250 words by 15 December 2010 and full papers by 15 June 2011. Manuscripts and abstracts must be delivered to (conference /at/ ptks.pl) and should be no longer than 40 000 characters (notes and reference list inclusive).
