The second Communication, Media and Journalism Research Group Conference  
 aims to unite postgraduate researchers and early career academics  
whose  research lies in the interconnected fields of communication,  
media and  journalism. This one day online conference focuses on the  
broad theme of  crisis. We are interested in engaging with the  
interrelationships  between political, economic, healthcare and media  
industry crises, both  past and present. We welcome any papers which  
engage with the CMJ’s six  core strands:

●Conflict and crisis communication

●European and comparative media and information law

●Journalism, communication and democracy

●Journalism and communication history

●Language, communication and journalism

●The digital media and communication environment

The Communication, Media and Journalism research group (CMJ) is home to  
 the research-active staff and students from the University of  
Sheffield’s Department of Journalism Studies, the Centre for Freedom of  
 the Media (CFOM) and the Centre for the Study of Journalism and  
History.  The CMJ is an interdisciplinary group with research strengths  
in data  science, psychology, history, international relations,  
journalism,  international law, media and communication, political  
science and  sociology. Our researchers work across the broad areas of  
communication,  media and journalism.
