CFP: Book Chapters for Edited Volume “The Internet and the 2016
Presidential Campaign� (Edited by Jody C. Baumgartner and Terri L.
Towner)


Proposal Deadline:  Chapter manuscripts due by January 1, 2017. A

completed book manuscript delivered by April 1, 2017.


Virtually all aspects of political campaigns have been dramatically

changed as the result of the Internet. The increased centrality of the

Internet in citizens’ lives has had an effect on how we learn about,

view, and interact with campaigns and candidates. The online campaign

has now evolved into an extensive, sophisticated, and integral part of

presidential electioneering. Although many developments surrounding

the Internet campaign are now considered to be standard fare, there

will no doubt be a number of new developments in 2016. This is

inevitable, given the rapid rate of technological change and the

ability of citizens, news organizations, candidates, parties and

interest groups adapting to these changes.


“The Internet and the 2016 Presidential Campaign� will examine these

changes, exploring the continued evolution of the Internet’s role in

presidential campaigns. Because the Internet has affected virtually

all aspects of modern presidential campaigns, the book will be divided

into four sections. Each will contain approximately 4-5 chapters.

Proposals for each section will be considered:


Section I. Campaign Organizations and Political Networks.


Section II. Citizen Involvement: Participation and Engagement


Section III. Citizen Involvement: Knowledge and Learning.


Section IV. Political Newsmaking: Production, Delivery, and Consumption
