The Promotional Turn

International conference on promotional logics in current societies

Date: Friday, 18 March 2016

Time: 9:00 am - 16pm.

Venue: Pieni juhlasali / The small hall. The main building of the
University of Helsinki, Fabianinkatu 33, 4th floor.

The International Master’s Degree Programme Media and Global
Communication (MGC) welcomes you to an international one-day conference
on contemporary promotional logics within political, cultural and public
life.

Promotional activities and strategies have gained an important role in
contemporary societies as they circulate rapidly across all sectors of
society. Furthermore, a wide range of people, agencies and institutions
from politicians to dissidents employ promotional strategies to advance
their aims. Hence, this conference will explore contemporary promotional
practices, tactics and logics and ask: How is promotion affecting public
life in democracies? What theoretical and empirical tools are available
for examining promotional logics within political, cultural and public
life? Thus, leading scholars will discuss the rapidly evolving forms of
promotional culture and their implications for society and will also
establish ways of studying promotional culture.

The event is organised in collaboration with the Public, Politics and
Promotion Research Group (P3) in Media and Communication Studies at the
University of Helsinki.

Please find the detailed programme in the web page of the conference below.
