[ecrea] Herbert Schiller Award 2016

Mon Jan 25 22:52:04 GMT 2016



The International Association for Media and Communication Research –
IAMCR – invites applications from graduate students and emerging
scholars for a prize in memory of Herbert I. Schiller, to be awarded at
IAMCR annual conference (July 27-31 2016) in Leicester, UK.

The IAMCR prize in memory of Herbert I. Schiller was established at
IAMCR's Singapore Conference in 2000 to celebrate his lasting
contribution to communications scholarship and to remember his work in
helping to establish IAMCR as a open, hospitable and vital space of
debate, as one of the founders of the Political Economy Section and as
Vice President of the Association.

Herbert embodied the very best traditions of intellectual life, as a
scholar, as an influential writer, as an engaged critic and public
orator, and above all, as an inspirational teacher who encouraged
younger scholars to develop work that challenges accepted orthodoxies
and centers of power and opens up new questions for analysis and debate.
