IAMCR 2017 General Conference theme:
Transforming Culture, Politics & Communication: New media, new
territories, new discourses
All over the world communication and media are being transformed by
complex and often unpredictable dynamics, tendencies and trends. Across
an increasing number of regions, established social and political actors
are being challenged and new movements are emerging, defined, for
example, by sexual preferences, lifestyles, ethnic identities, customs,
practices or interests. These new actors are more likely to see
“politics” as spaces of multiple modes of participation rather than as
spaces where they are represented. Contemporary politics (especially
political parties) are being transformed and new social movements are
emerging and growing, taking various forms, sizes, and shapes.
Against this backdrop, the conference will explore and discuss the link
between, on the one hand, broad social, political and cultural changes
and dynamics, and on the other, changes in communication, media, and
their processes. In particular, the conference will be an opportunity to
incubate and develop theories, research, and frameworks, that might
guide emerging theoretical frameworks to help think about, discuss and
create new, and hopefully more appropriate, concepts and methods for the
field and its practices.
A key focus will be the new social and spatial territories of the
political, their social and cultural effects, and the dramatic
transformations they have produced in communication processes.
Given the epochal changes underway globally, is it time to rethink
communication and relocate it, with all of its nuances, within a new
understanding of politics and culture that speaks to the times we now
live in?
Submission of Abstracts
Each Section and Working Group of IAMCR has issued its own Call for
Papers. Abstracts should be submitted from *1 December 2016 – 9 February
2017*.
Both individual and panel submissions are welcome. Early submission is
strongly encouraged.
Deadlines
The deadline for submission of abstracts is*9 February 2017*.
Decisions on acceptance of abstracts will be communicated to applicants
by their Section or Working Group Head no later than 3 April 2017.
For those whose abstracts are accepted, full conference papers are to be
submitted by 26 June.
Guidelines for Abstracts
Unless otherwise stated by a Section or Working Group, abstracts should
be between 300 and 500 words in length.
All abstract submissions must be made via IAMCR’s Open Conference System
<http://iamcr-ocs.org> at http://iamcr-ocs.org. There are to be no email
submissions of abstracts addressed to any Section or Working Group Head.
It is expected that for the most part, only one (1) abstract will be
submitted per person. However, under no circumstances should there be
more than two (2) abstracts bearing the name of the same author either
individually or as part of any group of authors. Please note also that
the same abstract or another version with minor variations in title or
content must not be submitted to more than one Section or Working Group.
Such submissions will be deemed to be in breach of the conference
guidelines and will be rejected by the OCS system, by the relevant Head
or by the Conference Programme Reviewer. Authors submitting them risk
being removed entirely from the conference programme.
Technical guidelines, if any, are defined by the individual Sections and
Working Groups. If you have questions, consult the Section or Working
Group’s specific CfP or contact the head of the Section and Working
Group that interests you.
For further information, please consult the conference website or
contact the Local Organizing Committee (LOC) by email at
(cartagena2017 /at/ iamcr.org) <mailto:(cartagena2017 /at/ iamcr.org)>.
Criteria for Evaluation
Submitted abstracts will generally be evaluated on the basis of:
1. Theoretical contribution
2. Methods
3. Quality of writing
4. Literature review
5. Relevance of the submission to the work of the Section or Working Group
6. Originality and/or significance
Sections and Working Groups may use additional criteria and may assign
different weights to the above criteria. Consult the specific CfP or
contact the head of the Section and Working Group you want to submit to
if you have questions.
Proposals for consideration by thematic sections and working groups must
be submitted via the IAMCR Open Conference System <http://iamcr-ocs.org>
