CALL FOR PAPERS
The International Visual Sociology Association invites abstracts for its
34th annual meeting, to be held at Lillehammer University of Applied
Sciences, Norway, June 22-24, 2016. Abstracts and symposia may address
general topics relating to visual methods, theories, and other aspects
central to visual sociology and the visual analysis of society and
culture, as well as the general theme of the conference, “Visualizing
Sustainability. Imagined futures.”
We encourage submissions from those interested in the visual research
and thinking from sociology and related social sciences; communications
and media; cultural studies; film and photographic studies;
photojournalism and related practices. We encourage those unfamiliar
with visual methods and analysis to visually innovate and experiment in
their respective substantive specializations. The IVSA is rooted in the
discipline of sociology but welcomes participation from a wide range of
disciplines.
Preference will be given to presentations that use visual material
(images or video).
Specific themes may include but not be limited to the following:
-       visual methods in the study of sustainability
-       the visual study of nature and human presence in the world
-       the visual analysis of environmental problems and crises
-       the visual dimension of social movements for human sustainability
-       the visual imagination of a sustainable ecological world
Please note: the list above is suggestive and not exhaustive. As the
first conference to address this important theme, we expect a wide range
of creative approaches, ideas and presentations, including papers with
images, videos, photo essays, multi-media, fine arts and other modes of
visual expression.

January 2016 and February 1^st  for abstracts. Please submit here:
