    open a call for participation in the online workshop
    *Towards development of mediatization research VIII
    Mediatization(s). Conversations of Theories, Concepts and Traditions*
    MS Teams, 22.11.2024

------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Continuing our research meetings focused on specific issues of
    mediatization research chaired by eminent experts (Göran Bolin
    (2017), Johan Fornäs (2018), Andreas Hepp (2019), Mark Deuze
    (2020) André Jansson (2021), Andrew Hoskins (2022), Kirsten Frandsen
    (2023), this year the workshop will take place online on the 22
    November 2024 and it will be led by Professor Carlos A. Scolari,
    Barcelona’s Pompeu Fabra University.
    The title of this year's edition is: /Mediatization(s).
    Conversations of Theories, Concepts and Traditions/
    We invite all mediatization researchers who wish to discuss their
    own research projects in a narrow and closed group of media scholars
    under the guidance of an expert.
    The idea behind this year's edition
    This year we would like to dedicate the workshop to such topics of
    contributions as interdisciplinarity in mediatization studies as
    well as new frontiers in mediatization studies, focusing on such
    issues as:

      * possibilities of the transfer of schools, traditions, concepts
        etc. into mediatization studies
      * methodological and conceptual innovations in mediatization studies
      * clashes of ideas and incompatibility in mediatization studies
      * theoretical and conceptual flexibility versus inflexibility in
        mediatization studies
      * non-obviousness in mediatization studies
      * boundaries and limits of mediatization studies.

    We invite submissions that may be aimed at answering the following
    questions:

      * If media construct realities, how should cognitive science and
        similar disciplines be integrated with mediatization studies?
      * What are the relationships between mediatization studies and the
        emerging fields of new materialisms and non-anthropocentric
        approaches?
      * How can mediatization studies be enriched through exchanges
        between the Global North and the Global South?
      * How can the integration of eco-evolutionary approaches in
        mediatization studies enrich the field?
      * What are the new (or expected in the near future) research
        objects, ideas, methodological, and conceptual innovations in
        mediatization studies?
      * What are the conceptual, theoretical, and methodological
        challenges of mediatization studies?
      * Concepts such as 'deep mediatization' and 'waves of
        mediatization' have been central to mediatization studies. What
        new concepts and metaphors could be introduced to enrich our
        understanding of mediatization processes?

    The idea and principles of the workshop
    The idea and format of the meeting is based on a closed
    specialization workshop in a formula proven in the previous
    editions, i.e.:

      * participants work on different types of materials (articles,
        works in progress, proposals, theses, reports,
        presentations/slides, any other drafts etc.) under the guidance
        of the expert;
      * meeting is preceded by substantive preparation by the expert and
        all participants on the basis of materials circulated among all
        participants in advance;
      * during the meeting all participants focus on group discussion
        and expert feedback (presentations and speeches are limited to a
        minimum);
      * seminar is preceded by an introductory lecture by the leader.

    *There is no conference fee.
