[Commlist] Arab Media and Society Issue 35, Winter/Spring 2023 Media & Fake News

Arab Media and Society is pleased to announce the publication of our 
36th issue, which has the theme of “Media & Women”. In this issue we 
examine roles and depictions of Arab women throughout various forms of 
media. In the English section, articles explore subjects that include 
effects of self-reporting gender-based violence on social 
media, representation of gender roles in brand storytelling commercial 
campaigns, feminist markers in contemporary Arabic popular music 
(translated from Arabic), the portrayal of women in television 
commercials, and depictions of Arab women in cyber-literature. 
Additionally, there are two reviews of recently published books that 
consider Arab women’s revolutionary art and Middle Eastern television 
dramas. The Arabic section boasts research into feminist markers in 
contemporary Arabic popular music (translated to English), how the 
participation of Arab women in media and cultural negotiations may be 
used as a means for geopolitical public relations, and 
self-representation of Arab women in feminist podcasts. The full text 
issue is available at:

*Call for papers *

/Arab Media & Society/is also seeking submissions for our next issue on 
“Media & Artificial Intelligence.”

The advent of artificial intelligence has ushered in a new era that 
promises significant changes in the field of communication and media. As 
nation-states and organizations invest substantial resources in 
advancing artificial intelligence, it becomes essential to explore the 
potential outcomes of this revolutionary digital mechanism. While 
artificial intelligence is often presented within a utopian framework, 
there are also cautious voices raising concerns. This call for papers 
aims to critically analyze the impact of artificial intelligence on 
media and communication, particularly in the Arab world and its diaspora.

Specifically, we seek to examine how artificial intelligence will 
contribute to and shape the production of media and communication. 
Additionally, we aim to investigate the downstream effects of artificial 
intelligence on media audiences and consumers, as well as the potential 
alterations in communication dynamics between individuals and entities. 
This call encourages deep reflection on the opportunities, risks, 
ethical and moral implications, potentialities, and transformations that 
may arise in the imminent age of artificial intelligence.

In light of the pressing need to address the complexities presented by 
artificial intelligence, Arab Media & Society dedicates its upcoming 
publication, issue 37, to this theme. We welcome diverse submissions on 
various subtopics related to media and artificial intelligence. Some 
suggested subtopics include, but are not limited to:

  * The role of artificial intelligence in media production and content
    creation
  * AI-driven algorithms and their impact on media consumption patterns
  * Ethical considerations and challenges in introducing artificial
    intelligence in media and communication
  * The future of media and its content: journalism, advertising, public
    relations, strategic communication, broadcast, etc., in an era of
    artificial intelligence
  * Journalism and Communication programs in Higher Education in the era
    of Artificial Intelligence
  * Digital Divide / (In)equitable access to technologies
  * Social Media Algorithms and User Behavior
  * AI and Media Consumption Patterns
  * AI, Propaganda, and Information Warfare
  * AI in Entertainment and Creative Industries
  * Economic Impact of AI on Media Industries
  * Regulatory and Policy Perspectives on AI in Media

Authors interested in submitting their work for peer-review 
consideration should send their manuscripts by June 15, 2024. Other 
submissions, including book and conference reviews, shorter research 
papers, and columns, should be received by July 1, 2024.

All submissions must be in Microsoft Word format (.doc or .docx), adhere 
to the Chicago Manual of Style, and have a maximum length of 10,000 
words (including footnotes and citations). Please include the author's 
name (as it will be published), affiliation, and a brief abstract of no
