[Commlist] CFP - News Coverage of US Elections

The “News Coverage of US Elections” workshop, convened by the Media & 
Democracy program<https://www.ssrc.org/programs/view/media-democracy/> 
at the Social Science Research Council<https://www.ssrc.org/>, will 
bring together social scientists and humanities scholars to present and 
receive feedback on their ongoing research that addresses how changes in 
media, technology, and politics are shaping the way elections are covered.



The workshop, organized under the direction of 
<https://commstudies.utexas.edu/faculty/natalie-jomini-stroud>  Julia 
Azari<https://www.marquette.edu/political-science/directory/julia-azari.php> 
(Marquette University) and Michael 
Wagner<https://journalism.wisc.edu/staff/michael-wagner/> (University of 
Wisconsin-Madison), will be held at the Social Science Research Council 
in New York City on April 23-24, 2020. Accepted participants’ travel and 
accommodation costs will be covered by the organizers.



We welcome applications from both junior and senior scholars across all 
disciplines. However, the focused nature of the workshop demands that we 
limit participation to 10–12 authors. Thus, our selection will be 
determined, not only by the quality of submissions, but also by their 
thematic fit and complementarity. A selection of the papers presented at 
the workshop will be invited to submit full manuscripts to be considered 
for inclusion in a symposium on election coverage in an outlet for 
public scholarship.



To apply, please submit a current C.V., an abstract of up to 500 words, 
and a statement of up to 300 words on your interest in participating in 
the workshop to (mdapplications /at/ ssrc.org)<mailto:(mdapplications /at/ ssrc.org)> 
by November 4, 2019.
