[ecrea] Call for Abstracts! 6th Intern. Conference on Media in CEE (Apr.26-27, 2013)

Sat Dec 08 11:31:55 GMT 2012


We would like to remind all of you and ask for your assistance in helping to distribute the news about the 6th International Conference on Media in Central and Eastern Europe (CEECOM 2013) entitled "Liquidity, Fragmentation, and Individualization in the Mediascape" that will take place on April 26-27, 2013, in Kaunas, Lithuania. This year it will be organised by the Department of Public Communications at Vytautas Magnus University in Kaunas together with the Central and East-European Network at ECREA and the Baltic Association for Media Research (BAMR).

The focus of CEECOM 2013 is on Central and Eastern Europe, its social and cultural transformations, communication cultures and changes, its media, and its journalisms. The main theme of the conference puts a strong emphasis on changing roles, missions and functions of contemporary media. It applies a very broad (historical, comparative, case-based analysis, media use analysis, and others) perspective to the theme and also raises questions about effects and severe social and cultural consequences of media change. By aiming to tackle all these questions the theme seeks to address political and social histories of CEE media development and change. Briefly, it moves around the main idea that CEE countries and their media and communications could be studied as laboratories of modern life where all contemporary controversies are identified and tested.

Call for papers and panels will be open until 17 February, 2013. All abstracts should be written in English and have to be submitted online filling-in the forms on the conference website: http://www.ceecom2013kaunas.lt. All abstracts will be reviewed by the scientific committee members or other reviewers appointed by the committee. Authors of the accepted papers and panels will be informed till March 17, 2013. Registration to the conference will be opened on March 18, 2013. Final CEECOM2013 Kaunas Conference program will be announced on the website on April 20, 2013.
