Call for papers


The European Communication Research and Education Association (ECREA) 
and the Hans Bredow Institute, together with the University of 
Hamburg and the Hamburg Media School welcome the submission of 
abstracts for presentations in all fields of Communication and Media 
Studies for the 3rd European Communication Conference to be held in 
Hamburg, Germany from 12 to 15 October 2010.

The general theme of the conference is 'Transcultural Communication 
-- Intercultural Comparisons'. The organisers call for proposals in 
all fields of communication and media studies, but particularly 
invite conceptual, empirical, and methodological proposals on inter- 
and transcultural communication phenomena and/or on comparative research.

ECREA is pleased to accept proposals for individual papers, panels as 
well as poster presentations. All proposals must be submitted to (and 
will be reviewed) by one of the 17 ECREA thematic sections through 
the conference website: www.ecrea2010hamburg.eu.

Abstracts should be written in English and should contain a clear 
outline of the argument, the theoretical framework, and where 
applicable methodology and results. The preferred length of the 
individual abstracts is between 400 and 500 words (the maximum is 500 
words). Panel proposals --which should consist of five individual 
contributions-- combine a panel abstract with five individual 
abstracts, each of which are between 400 and 500 words.

Participants may submit more than one proposal, but only one paper or 
poster by the same first author will be accepted and programmed. 
First authors can still be second (or third, etc.) author of other 
papers or posters, and can still act as chair or respondent of a panel.

*Deadline: 28 February 2010*
All proposals should be submitted through the website no later than 
28 February 2010. Please note that this submission deadline will not 
be extended!

Proposals should be submitted through the conference website. Online 
submission system opens 1 December 2009. Please go to:
