Academics, researchers and PhD students are welcome with paper proposals.

This year marks the tenth anniversary of the launch of Facebook, the 
most ubiquitous social media and communication platform in the world. It 
also gives us the opportunity to take a step back and examine 
increasingly important questions about how Facebook and the new social 
web have impacted the world of communication, from debate, discourse and 
rhetoric to philosophy, politics, social context, and other forms of new 
media.

Has Facebook been constructive or disruptive in these different areas – 
or perhaps both? How does the ease and ubiquity of online communication 
affect longstanding national, generational, ideological, gender and 
class divides?

We welcome papers seeking to explore such questions, including 
approaches that aim to challenge the importance, relevance or timeliness 
of such questions.
