[Commlist] cfp: computational analysis methods & fundamentalist extremism

Fri Oct 04 09:29:53 GMT 2019





We are putting together a panel for submission to the 2020 International Communication Association (ICA) conference to be held May 21-25, 2020 in Gold Coast Australia. Specifically, the panel will be submitted to the Computational division.

In accordance with the conference theme, Open Communication, our panel will concentrate around the ways in which computational analysis methods can help explore fundamentalist extremism of all stripes in online spaces. This topic is particularly salient when one considers the ubiquity of social media and smart phones, as well as other digital spaces well-suited to strategic uses by violent actors. As such, this panel focuses specifically on methods including (but not exclusive to) data scraping, LDA, dictionary methods, etc. to effectively trace the myriad representations and flows of violent extremist actors and discourses in all their iterations, as well as draw the lines between and among the same.

If you are interested in joining our panel, please email an abstract of 150 words to Meredith L. Pruden ((mpruden1 /at/ gsu.edu) <mailto:(mpruden1 /at/ gsu.edu)>) or Ayse Lokmanoglu ((alokmanoglu1 /at/ gsu.edu) <mailto:(alokmanoglu1 /at/ gsu.edu)>) no later than Oct. 15, 2019.
