IN THE FOOTSTEPS OF GIANTS: REMEMBERING RICHARD HOGGART, STUART HALL AND 
JOHN TULLOCH

INSTITUTE OF COMMUNICATION ETHICS
ANNUAL CONFERENCE

24 OCTOBER 2014, FRONTLINE CLUB, LONDON W2 1QJ

CALL FOR PAPERS

Three giants in the study of media have died recently. Richard Hoggart 
and Stuart Hall helped invent the study of media as a serious academic 
subject half a century ago. Without them, communication and cultural 
studies would not be on the curriculum of so much of the academy. 
Hoggart’s The Uses of Literacy in 1957 and Hall’s Policing the Crisis in 
1978  are seminal public intellectual texts. The writings of John 
Tulloch (a prominent member of the ICE executive group and regular 
contributor to Ethical Space) covered a vast range of communication 
ethics issues (the reporting of the ‘war on terror’, the representation 
of ‘evil’ in the media, media regulation, the ethics of investigative 
reportage  – and even the demonization of Rebekah Brooks). We owe them 
much. We tread in the footsteps of these intellectual giants.

This one day conference at the Frontline Club invites short papers (10 
minutes) which explore and celebrate the contributions they made to the 
study of communication ethics. The palette is by design wide and could 
include contributions from a range of disciplines including ethics, 
journalism. cultural studies, sociology, intellectual history, memory 
studies and politics.

If you wish to contribute 200 word abstracts please send them by 1 July 
2014 to Fiona Thompson , Director of ICE, at (f.thompson287 /at/ gmail.com).
