From rteruell at pnw.edu Wed Jul 18 15:27:30 2018 From: rteruell at pnw.edu (Rhon Teruelle) Date: Wed Jul 18 15:27:37 2018 Subject: [Acc-cca-l] upcoming CFP Message-ID: <1531949122204.70755@pnw.edu> Hi all! As a way to test this list, I would like to announce an upcoming CFP. I will be co-editing (along with Jesse Cohn) a special edition of Democratic Communique on the tactical use of media (in general) and social media (in particular). So, if you're working on anything along those lines (or know someone who does), do keep me in mind. Official CFP will be coming out in less than a month. So stoked!

Mary Francoli (the CCA's new President) and Tanner Mirrlees (the CCA's new Vice-President) need your help! We are searching for a B.C.-based local area coordinator (LAC) for the CCA's annual conference at Congress 2019 (to be held at UBC's Vancouver campus). Ideally, the local area coordinator will be a professor, teacher, instructor, researcher or graduate student in a communication and media studies-relevant field who lives close to UBC's Vancouver campus. The role of the local area coordinator is threefold: 1) To liaison with Mary and Tanner as we build the conference (we live in Ontario, and so are at a distance from B.C.) 2) To attend a Congress Planning Meeting at UBC Point Grey Campus on September 26, 2018. 3) To complete a few logistical tasks, such as scoping out and booking UBC classrooms for CCA conference sessions. The local area coordinator role is integral to planning the CCA's annual conference, a good opportunity to support the CCA, and a positive way to meet communication and media studies colleagues. If you are interested in working with us as the CCA's local area coordinator for Congress 2019, please send a message directly to Tanner Mirrlees (tanner.mirrlees@uoit.ca) and Mary Francoli (maryfrancoli@cunet.carleton.ca) no later than Friday September 7th. We hope to hear from you soon! Best wishes, Tanner and Mary ?

U.S. President Donald Trump?s immigration policy, played out most cruelly on the bodies of young migrants forcibly separated from their parents at the United States-Mexico border since April 2018, highlights the continued need to consider the often destructive role that borders play in the lives of young people. In this case, the border is national, the product of the social construction that is the nation, or what we might call, borrowing the words of Benedict Anderson, an imagined community. In other words, there is nothing natural about nations or their borders; rather, nations come into being when numerous strangers scattered across great distances begin to perceive themselves as belonging to a larger body politic. Anderson argues that print capitalism was instrumental to the formation of nations, since strangers could, as a result of learning about others in distant locations in their own vernacular, feel as though they had something in common with them. He explains that ?all communities larger than primordial villages of face-to-face contact (and perhaps even these) are imagined,? and that they ?are to be distinguished, not by their falsity/genuineness, but by the style in which they are imagined? (6). Despite the fact that they are imagined political communities, nations have real and often devastating material effects, both on those within their borders, who may or may not experience a sense of belonging, and those attempting to cross their borders. For many migrants, for example, national borders can be a site of bodily intrusion. Even in their less physical form, national borders literally obstruct movement, since the movement of goods and capital within a grossly unequal playing field of world trade benefits some countries and decimates others. Such inequity helps to determine the movement of people as well. As many have been quick to point out since the beginning of Trump?s war on child arrivals, immigrants, refugees, visa-seekers, amnesty applicants and other vulnerable people, the U.S. is deeply complicit in migration patterns: Decades of U.S. foreign and economic policies have effectively made many other nations dangerous or unlivable. The current administration?s policy stance on immigration is both tone deaf and history-blind. It is tantamount to ethnic cleansing. As the continuing war on refugees and immigrants in the U.S. and elsewhere demonstrate, young people are often caught at the border or, worse, killed in the borderlands. At the same time, young people themselves may contribute to attempts at policing borders. These borders need not be confined to national ones. Borders come in many forms, including frontiers, boundaries, edges, margins, perimeters, and peripheries. Imagined or not, borders can surround, enclose, encircle, flank, fringe, hem, or adjoin. As these contradictory meanings suggest, borders are infinitely messy and complex despite their pretensions to sieve-like hygienic purpose, cleanliness, simplicity, and even purity. Topics may include, but are not limited to, the following: * Borders and refugee children * Childhood on the border; children and borderlands * Children and borders under UNCRC * Borders and carceral culture; incarcerated young people; representations of incarcerated young people * Characteristics of borders in the ?global south/north? dynamic and the impact of colonization on First Nations and other indigenous young people * Socioeconomic borders and young people * Borders and racialization of young people; young people and racism * Borders between self and other, child and parent; borders of independent selfhood * Borders and personhood; the borders of personhood * Borders of childhood; the border separating child from adult * Young people and lost borders; imagined or remembered borders * Bodily borders and young people * Borders, sex, and gender; sex and gender in the borderland; children/young adults and transgender; transgender texts by, for, or about young people * Young people and the borders of risk/danger: young people?s negotiation of risk and danger, their negotiation or mapping of public spaces in terms of risk and danger; their performance or embodiment of safety, protection, and confidence in public spaces; their innovative negotiations of identity and morality in such spaces * Geographical borders and young people; attempts to police young people?s mobility in public spaces; borders between adult space and space designated as children?s space (e.g. playgrounds); borders between time and space * Borders between the ?homed? and the ?unhomed?; precariously housed young people; street-involved young people * Borders between the urban and the suburban and young people * Borders erected between nature and culture; attempts to keep children in nature-lands; young people?s negotiations of rural and urban environments * Architectural borders and young people; young people and design; the role that design plays in erecting or blurring borders between children and adults * Borders and disability; young people?s negotiations of ableist spaces * Formal and informal transgression and policing of borders of legality; young people?s interactions with authority/law enforcement; their negotiation of the borders of legality; the role that support workers play in providing assistance in shoring up borders of legality * Generational borders * Negotiating border control and regulation through youth activism; youth-led social and political movements and how these cross borders and boundaries * The negotiation and transgression of youth subcultural borders Timeline * Abstracts are due October 15, 2018 * Short-listed papers will be notified on or around November 5, 2018 * Final papers due February 1, 2019 * Peer-review: February-May 2019 * Revisions: May-August 2019 * Publication: Fall/Winter 2019 Inquiries may be directed to Lauren Bosc, Managing Editor: l.bosc@uwinnipeg.ca Further information about submission guidelines is available at: http://jeunessejournal.ca/index.php/yptc/about/submissions#onlineSubmissions Work Cited Anderson, Benedict.

Heyer was a polymath, earning degrees in geography, sociology and a PhD in anthropology from Rutgers University before going on to make significant contributions to communication studies, which he taught at Laurier since January 2001. His published research includes significant studies of the works of Orson Welles and Harold Innis, the popular and influential book Titanic Century: Media, Myth and the Making of a Cultural Icon and seven editions of the most widely-adopted introductory media history textbook in North America, Communication in History (co-edited with David Crowley and, in the last edition, Peter Urquhart). In addition, Heyer published work on digital cinema and opera, the legacy of Marshall McLuhan and taught courses on film comedy, non-verbal communication, the culture of the 1950s, and radio, among many, many others. Just this summer his magnum opus on desert island narratives, Islands in the Screen: From Robinson Crusoe to Lost, was submitted for publication and is expected to be published posthumously. As well as a highly accomplished scholar and popular undergraduate teacher, Heyer was a beloved and extraordinarily generous colleague and mentor. Perhaps his greatest contribution, though, was to graduate student teaching, supervising and mentorship. Over his career, Heyer supervised dozens of students to MA and PhD degrees and was instrumental in establishing the MA program in Communication Studies at Laurier, where he was a fixture, teaching the required seminar, even after his retirement in 2016. Heyer?s pursuits outside of academic life were as eclectic and passionate as those inside. He was an avid cyclist and archer, an extremely accomplished long-distance runner, completing several marathons, including Boston and New York, in the ridiculously fast time of under 2:40, an excellent trumpet and trombone player, had an encyclopedic knowledge of baseball history, was a published poet and was an enthusiastic follower of less high-profile sports such as Australian Rules Football and track-and-field. Last summer, Heyer received the Media Ecology Association?s Walter J. Ong Award for Career Achievement in Scholarship in San Francisco. His response to the award illustrates both his humility about his accomplishments and their extraordinarily broad range: ?This came as a complete surprise ? I would never regard myself as having the kind of unified body of scholarship that would merit such an award,? said Heyer. ?In generously acknowledging the breadth of my work, I thank the MEA for thinking otherwise.? Laurier?s Department of Communication Studies is looking into ways to permanently honour Heyer?s legacy. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Un lunch l?ger et des boissons vous seront offerts. *Qu'est-ce que le CRICIS? * Le CRICIS a pour principale mission d?analyser les rapports entre communication, information, culture et soci?t? ? partir de la mobilisation de perspectives critiques, et ce tant au Qu?bec et au Canada, qu?? l?international. Comprenant quatre axes : *Mutations de la culture et des m?dias* ; *Big Data et surveillance* ; *Communication, m?dias et d?mocratie* et *?pist?mologies critiques de la culture et de la communication*, le Centre participe ? la vie de nos universit?s en organisant divers ?v?nements, dont ce s?minaire mensuel qui porte sur les relations entre ?tudes consacr?es ? la communication et ? la culture et perspectives critiques. Ce dernier est ouvert ? l?ensemble des membres de la communaut? scientifique.

Paris 8 Vincennes ? Saint-Denis, Chercheur, CEMTI, chercheur associ?, CRICIS *R?sum? * Durant les d?cennies 80 et 90, la critique avait relativement peu de place dans l?Universit? fran?aise et ses champs connexes, m?diatiques et ?ditoriaux, n??taient gu?re plus g?n?reux avec elle. Il a fallu attendre le tournant du si?cle et notamment le d?veloppement du mouvement altermondialiste pour voir se revigorer les milieux militants, la critique sociale, et, en ?cho, la sph?re universitaire et les ?ditions critiques. Nous avons ainsi assist? ? une revivification de la critique *via* la multiplication de s?minaires, de colloques, de revues, d?ouvrages, de dipl?mes, etc. L?hypoth?se qu?il semble aujourd?hui raisonnable de poser est que cet ?lan critique est en train de subir de multiples attaques. ? la faveur de ce contexte, on constate un raffermissement ?vident des politiques et des discours r?actionnaires qui s?accompagne d?une volont? pratique de faire taire la critique sociale *via* des processus de criminalisation des mouvements sociaux, d?accroissement du contr?le social, de matraquage id?ologique et de d?cr?dibilisation des analyses, discours et pratiques progressistes. L?un des fronts sp?cifiques de cette guerre s?exprime clairement dans les attaques port?es aux sciences sociales, tout particuli?rement quand elles se revendiquent critiques. Autrement dit, la critique serait soumise, aujourd?hui, ? des intimidations d?ampleur et de natures assez diff?rentes, mais visant ? amoindrir le r?le qu?elles seraient susceptibles de jouer au c?t? des forces qui tendent ? remettre en cause les ordres sociaux. *Notice biographique * Fabien Granjon est sociologue, professeur en SIC au sein de l?Universit?

Les recherches r?centes portant successivement sur la solidarit? num?rique et les rapports de pouvoir entre champ m?diatique et champ politique nous ont permis d?approfondir les fondamentaux d?une approche interdisciplinaire dans les sciences sociales. Les grands enjeux d?velopp?s dans ces dites recherches recoupent plusieurs sous-th?matiques auxquelles s?appliquent les sciences sociales et qui sont aujourd?hui autant de d?fis pour les chercheurs qui ne peuvent les aborder sans recourir n?cessairement ? des th?ories, concepts ou m?thodes emprunt?s ? plusieurs disciplines (donc ? l?interdisciplinarit?) et qui reposent davantage la question de la persistance et alors de la pertinence des d?coupages acad?miques et disciplinaires actuellement en vigueur dans nos universit?s. La critique peut aller loin si la ? porte ? de l?interdisciplinarit? comme posture ?pist?mique syst?matique ouvre les voies d?une remise en cause des modes de fonctionnement habituels des institutions universitaires. Mais ? l?arriv?e, elle n?aura rien d?original si elle emprunte beaucoup aux perspectives singuli?res critiques ouvertes par exemple par la th?orie g?n?rale des champs de Pierre Bourdieu ou par la quasi-r?volution ?pist?mologique dans les sciences ? laquelle invitait Immanuel Wallerstein dans ? Impenser la science sociale ?. *Notice biographique* Ndiaga Loum est juriste, politologue, professeur au d?partement des sciences sociales de l?Universit? du Qu?bec en Outaouais (UQO).

Better known as humorous deceptions or politically motivated deceptive actions, media hoaxes are increasingly being used by activists seeking to change the world by drawing attention to abuses of power by corporations and governments. In this regard, the Yes Men are the unrivaled masters of the media hoax. By blending cutting political satire, outlandish humor, and sobering social criticism, they expose the wrongdoings of the world?s most powerful institutions to make them more accountable, transparent, and responsible to the public. These interventions serve as compelling case studies from which to explore two defining tensions underpinning all activist endeavors?failure and success. In situating the Yes Men?s work in relation to failure and success, discussions surrounding the defining realities of activist struggle come to the fore, creating room for greater emphasis on cycles of activist innovation, adaptation, and renewal. Thus, this book sheds light on why media hoaxing has emerged as a significant 21st century activist practice and makes a case for the significance of the media hoax as a positive force in the articulation of utopian politics. https://rowman.com/ISBN/9781498527354/Media-Hoaxing-The-Yes-Men-and-Utopian-Politics Reviews Reilly?s book is the premier scholarly study of the historical, conceptual, political, aesthetic, and performative dimensions of the Yes Men. A comprehensive guide to the Yes Men?s tactical media struggles for social justice in the age of convergent spectacles and 'fake news,' a judicious and reflexive assessment of the political possibilities and pitfalls surrounding practices of media hoaxing and culture jamming, and a deft reminder of the power of laughter, Reilly?s book is a must read for progressive researchers, activists, and artists. ? Tanner Mirrlees, University of Ontario Institute of Technology Drawing mainly from the vast corpus of Yes Men pranksters?our favorite contemporary hucksters of ironic journalism?Ian Reilly ably charts the history, anatomy, intent, and failures/successes of media hoaxing. In the spirit of Jonathan Swift, these swindlers of traditional media unmask corporate greed, social injustices, and the widespread circulation of misinformation that we unthinkingly consume. Reilly's work points toward the efficacy of duping and the utopic possibilities for critical media hijinks...and not a moment too soon. ? Rebecca Krefting, Skidmore College Reilly's book provides an expert and thorough analysis of the phenomenal political satire of the Yes Men, intelligently-grounded in cultural and media studies. Situating their political interventions in the context of hoaxing, media activism, and journalism, Reilly brings the Yes Men to life through his sharp writing and savvy insight. A must-read for all interested in political humor and activism. ?

Critique et sciences sociales ? en *salle J-2625 *(UQAM, Pavillon Judith-Jasmin, en vid?oconf?rence avec Paris). Pour plus d'information, consultez notre site web ou l'?v?nement Facebook cr?? ? cet effet. *Changement de programmation* Malheureusement, nous devons vous informer que Fabien Granjon ne pourra pas intervenir lors du s?minaire en ce 28 septembre pour des raisons de maladie. Nous lui souhaitons un prompt r?tablissement! Par contre, bonne nouvelle: ?ric George , professeur ? l'?cole des m?dias, a g?n?reusement accept? de prendre sa place pour vous parler de la ? nature ? des ?tudes en communication! Il interviendra donc avec Ndiaga Loum , professeur ? l?Universit? du Qu?bec en Outaouais (UQO). Vous trouverez la description d?taill?e de leurs interventions ci-dessous. Le calendrier complet des s?minaires de l'axe 4 se trouve sur notre site web. Durant l'ann?e 2018-2019, nous accueillerons notamment Arthur Alves, H?l?ne Bourdeloie, Bill Buxton, Elsa Dorlin, Jean-Marc Fontan, Kasereka Kavwahirehi, Annick Madec, Josianne Millette, Katharina Niemeyer, Michel S?n?cal et Olivier Voirol. *D?voilement de la programmation annuelle lors d'un lunch convivial, J-1200, 12h30* Le s?minaire sera suivi d'un repas convivial lors duquel l'?quipe vous d?voilera la programmation annuelle du CRICIS. Ce serait aussi le moment pour les nouveaux ?tudiant.e.s des cycles sup?rieurs de rencontrer les membres de l'?quipe et de d?couvrir les activit?s et les quatre axes de recherche du Centre. Un lunch l?ger et des boissons vous seront offerts. *Qu'est-ce que le CRICIS? * Le CRICIS a pour principale mission d?analyser les rapports entre communication, information, culture et soci?t? ? partir de la mobilisation de perspectives critiques, et ce tant au Qu?bec et au Canada, qu?? l?international. Comprenant quatre axes : *Mutations de la culture et des m?dias* ; *Big Data et surveillance* ; *Communication, m?dias et d?mocratie* et *?pist?mologies critiques de la culture et de la communication*, le Centre participe ? la vie de nos universit?s en organisant divers ?v?nements, dont ce s?minaire mensuel qui porte sur les relations entre ?tudes consacr?es ? la communication et ? la culture et perspectives critiques. Ce dernier est ouvert ? l?ensemble des membres de la communaut? scientifique. Au plaisir de vous y voir, Lena Alexandra H?bner ?tudiante au doctorat conjoint en communication (UQAM, UdeM, Concordia) Coordonnatrice des activit?s scientifiques du CRICIS Charg?e de cours ? l'?cole des m?dias *Cycle de s?minaires ?pist?mologies critiques en culture et communication* Th?me du s?minaire : *Critique et sciences sociales* Le vendredi 28 septembre 2018, 9h30-12h30 *Quelle est la ? nature ? des ?tudes en communication ? interrogations d?ordre disciplinaire, interdisciplinaire, voire transdisciplinaire? * ?ric GEORGE, Professeur ? l'?cole des m?dias de l'Universit? du Qu?bec ? Montr?al, chercheur, CRICIS *R?sum? * La communication a pris une place croissante ? de nombreux titres aussi bien dans nos vies quotidiennes qu?? une ?chelle beaucoup plus vaste depuis au moins une cinquantaine d?ann?es. Elle s?est aussi largement d?velopp?e au sein des universit?s comme discipline reconnue institutionnellement. Mais que peut-on dire actuellement de la ? nature ? des ?tudes en communication ? Peut-on parler de discipline non seulement d?un point de vue institutionnel mais ?galement d?un point de vue ?pist?mologique ? Que nous enseignent ? ce sujet les d?veloppements des cinquantes derni?res ann?es ? et finalement, dans un autre ordre d?id?es, est-il m?me souhaitable de lutter en faveur du renforcement d?une discipline des ?tudes en communication en tant que telle ? Telles sont les questions qui nous animeront dans le cadre de cette pr?sentation. *Notice biographique * ?ric GEORGE est professeur titulaire ? l??cole des m?dias (Facult? de communication) de l?UQAM et directeur du Centre de recherche interuniversitaire sur la communication, l?information et la soci?t?

Les recherches r?centes portant successivement sur la solidarit? num?rique et les rapports de pouvoir entre champ m?diatique et champ politique nous ont permis d?approfondir les fondamentaux d?une approche interdisciplinaire dans les sciences sociales. Les grands enjeux d?velopp?s dans ces dites recherches recoupent plusieurs sous-th?matiques auxquelles s?appliquent les sciences sociales et qui sont aujourd?hui autant de d?fis pour les chercheurs qui ne peuvent les aborder sans recourir n?cessairement ? des th?ories, concepts ou m?thodes emprunt?s ? plusieurs disciplines (donc ? l?interdisciplinarit?) et qui reposent davantage la question de la persistance et alors de la pertinence des d?coupages acad?miques et disciplinaires actuellement en vigueur dans nos universit?s. La critique peut aller loin si la ? porte ? de l?interdisciplinarit? comme posture ?pist?mique syst?matique ouvre les voies d?une remise en cause des modes de fonctionnement habituels des institutions universitaires. Mais ? l?arriv?e, elle n?aura rien d?original si elle emprunte beaucoup aux perspectives singuli?res critiques ouvertes par exemple par la th?orie g?n?rale des champs de Pierre Bourdieu ou par la quasi-r?volution ?pist?mologique dans les sciences ? laquelle invitait Immanuel Wallerstein dans ?

Net Politics in the Era of Learning Algorithms (Ed. by ANDREAS SUDMANN) Message-ID: CALL FOR PAPERS International Book Publication on the Politics of AI The current Internet-based digital culture is increasingly being determined by modern Artificial Intelligence (AI). Above all, the machine learning methods (ML) of so-called Deep Learning (DL) are significantly involved in the current transformation of information technologies. The latest advances in AI are noteworthy, not least in one respect: DL is not new at all, but has been known for decades as the connectionist paradigm of Artificial Neural Networks (ANN). Apart from rare phases of increased academic interest, however, ANN were considered a dead end of AI research for a long time. This changed considerably a few years ago, when Krizhevsky/Sutskever/Hinton?s research (2012) in particular strongly demonstrated what ANN/DL methods can achieve, for example, in the area of image recognition, provided that the training of ANN is not only used in conjunction with access to very large amounts of data but consistently on high-performance hardware (e.g. fast, parallel organized GPU processors). In addition to technical, ethical, economic, and social aspects ? and not least due to the numerous advances in the field of AI ? the manifold political dimensions of DL and other AI/ML technologies are increasingly being negotiated in public discourse. ML/DL approaches can be deployed, for instance, to identify potential terrorists; in simple ways they can already generate political speeches; or they are used to evaluate the behaviour of users on social media platforms for the purpose of political targeting. As the latter example clearly shows, AI technologies are also crucial to understanding the medial and political developments and transformations of the Internet. Conversely, technologies with regard, for instance, to the access to large (correctly) labeled data sets are heavily dependent on Internet platforms, applications, and technologies (e.g. program libraries such as TensorFlow or crowd-sourcing platforms such as Amazon Mechanical Turk). The aim of the book project is to discuss the diverse political dimensions of Internet and AI technologies. Two perspectives, which are closely related to each other, are at the center: On the one hand, there is the question of how AI approaches, not least with regard to their connections to the Internet, can be characterized as black box technology. On the other hand, industrial-scientific projects such as ?in particular? the non-profit research company OpenAI shall be discussed, which, at least according to their mission statement, strive to democratize AI. The book project therefore not only wants to critically examine the claims of such companies and projects with regard to their concrete manifestations. Rather, it is about illuminating the media configurations and constellations of the production of these technologies in an interdisciplinary manner as well as placing them in a theoretically and historically appropriate way, especially with regard to their political implications, functions, and effects. Among others, the following questions can be addressed: What does it mean to critically investigate efforts of net politics in the age of learning algorithms? How is it even possible to explore the political aspects of modern machine learning approaches if many experts in the field of Computer Science consider ANN/DL technologies as a black box, fundamentally opaque to human understanding? In what way does such an assumed opacity of ANN/DL approaches affect questions of accountability and political agency? Are technological strategies of an Open or Explainable AI already able to reduce the opacity of AI methods? What political and/or critical concepts guide the technological process of making modern AI technology more accessible? And how can we think about suitable ways of democratizing AI beyond abstract aspects of transparency or accountability? Beyond these rather specific questions, however, contributions can also be submitted that deal in general with problems concerning the political dimension of artificial intelligence. The book project is a follow-up to the conference of the same name, which took place in Bochum from September 6-7, 2018. For more information on the scope of this conference, follow this link: https://www.cais.nrw/veranstaltungen/demokratie Important note: This call is primarily addressed to non-German authors. The majority of the conference participants were speakers from Germany and German-speaking countries, most of whom will also participate in the book project. For this reason, we are primarily interested in including some more contributions by "international authors". Unfortunately, no fee can be paid for the submission of essays. The book project is interdisciplinary. Scientific contributions from such diverse disciplines as computer science, philosophy, social sciences, physics, biology, medicine, science and technology studies, literature and media studies are therefore very welcome. Deadlines: Submission deadline for abstracts and short bio: October 25, 2018 Decision of acceptance for abstracts: November 10, 2018 Deadline for final full-text submissions: March 25, 2019 Acceptance of final full-text submissions: April 1, 2019. Please submit texts in English only. Abstracts should be between 250 to 500 words, the short bio about 150 words. Please include a title with your abstract. The text length of final essays should not exceed 5,000 words, including sources and footnotes.

Il interviendra donc avec Ndiaga Loum , professeur ? l?Universit? du Qu?bec en Outaouais (UQO). Vous trouverez la description d?taill?e de leurs interventions ci-dessous. Le calendrier complet des s?minaires de l'axe 4 se trouve sur notre site web. Durant l'ann?e 2018-2019, nous accueillerons notamment Arthur Alves, H?l?ne Bourdeloie, Bill Buxton, Elsa Dorlin, Jean-Marc Fontan, Kasereka Kavwahirehi, Annick Madec, Josianne Millette, Katharina Niemeyer, Michel S?n?cal et Olivier Voirol. *D?voilement de la programmation annuelle lors d'un lunch convivial, J-1200, 12h30* Le s?minaire sera suivi d'un repas convivial lors duquel l'?quipe vous d?voilera la programmation annuelle du CRICIS. Ce serait aussi le moment pour les nouveaux ?tudiant.e.s des cycles sup?rieurs de rencontrer les membres de l'?quipe et de d?couvrir les activit?s et les quatre axes de recherche du Centre. Un lunch l?ger et des boissons vous seront offerts. *Qu'est-ce que le CRICIS? * Le CRICIS a pour principale mission d?analyser les rapports entre communication, information, culture et soci?t? ? partir de la mobilisation de perspectives critiques, et ce tant au Qu?bec et au Canada, qu?? l?international. Comprenant quatre axes : *Mutations de la culture et des m?dias* ; *Big Data et surveillance* ; *Communication, m?dias et d?mocratie* et *?pist?mologies critiques de la culture et de la communication*, le Centre participe ? la vie de nos universit?s en organisant divers ?v?nements, dont ce s?minaire mensuel qui porte sur les relations entre ?tudes consacr?es ? la communication et ? la culture et perspectives critiques. Ce dernier est ouvert ? l?ensemble des membres de la communaut? scientifique. *Cycle de s?minaires ?pist?mologies critiques en culture et communication* Th?me du s?minaire : *Critique et sciences sociales* Le vendredi 28 septembre 2018, 9h30-12h30 *Quelle est la ? nature ? des ?tudes en communication ? interrogations d?ordre disciplinaire, interdisciplinaire, voire transdisciplinaire? * ?ric GEORGE, Professeur ? l'?cole des m?dias de l'Universit? du Qu?bec ? Montr?al, chercheur, CRICIS *R?sum? * La communication a pris une place croissante ? de nombreux titres aussi bien dans nos vies quotidiennes qu?? une ?chelle beaucoup plus vaste depuis au moins une cinquantaine d?ann?es. Elle s?est aussi largement d?velopp?e au sein des universit?s comme discipline reconnue institutionnellement. Mais que peut-on dire actuellement de la ? nature ? des ?tudes en communication ? Peut-on parler de discipline non seulement d?un point de vue institutionnel mais ?galement d?un point de vue ?pist?mologique ? Que nous enseignent ? ce sujet les d?veloppements des cinquantes derni?res ann?es ? et finalement, dans un autre ordre d?id?es, est-il m?me souhaitable de lutter en faveur du renforcement d?une discipline des ?tudes en communication en tant que telle ? Telles sont les questions qui nous animeront dans le cadre de cette pr?sentation. *Notice biographique * ?ric GEORGE est professeur titulaire ? l??cole des m?dias (Facult? de communication) de l?UQAM et directeur du Centre de recherche interuniversitaire sur la communication, l?information et la soci?t?

Les recherches r?centes portant successivement sur la solidarit? num?rique et les rapports de pouvoir entre champ m?diatique et champ politique nous ont permis d?approfondir les fondamentaux d?une approche interdisciplinaire dans les sciences sociales. Les grands enjeux d?velopp?s dans ces dites recherches recoupent plusieurs sous-th?matiques auxquelles s?appliquent les sciences sociales et qui sont aujourd?hui autant de d?fis pour les chercheurs qui ne peuvent les aborder sans recourir n?cessairement ? des th?ories, concepts ou m?thodes emprunt?s ? plusieurs disciplines (donc ? l?interdisciplinarit?) et qui reposent davantage la question de la persistance et alors de la pertinence des d?coupages acad?miques et disciplinaires actuellement en vigueur dans nos universit?s. La critique peut aller loin si la ? porte ? de l?interdisciplinarit? comme posture ?pist?mique syst?matique ouvre les voies d?une remise en cause des modes de fonctionnement habituels des institutions universitaires. Mais ? l?arriv?e, elle n?aura rien d?original si elle emprunte beaucoup aux perspectives singuli?res critiques ouvertes par exemple par la th?orie g?n?rale des champs de Pierre Bourdieu ou par la quasi-r?volution ?pist?mologique dans les sciences ? laquelle invitait Immanuel Wallerstein dans ? Impenser la science sociale ?. *Notice biographique* Ndiaga Loum est juriste, politologue, professeur au d?partement des sciences sociales de l?Universit? du Qu?bec en Outaouais (UQO).

Thank you, Alfred Hermida CALL FOR PAPERS: A themed issue of Journalism: Theory, Practice, Criticism Studying Incidental News: Antecedents, Dynamics and Implications Co-editors: Neta Kligler-Vilenchik, Hebrew University of Jerusalem, Israel; Alfred Hermida, University of British Columbia, Canada; Sebastia?n Valenzuela, Pontificia Universidad Cato?lica de Chile, Chile; Mikko Villi, University of Jyva?skyla?, Finland Theme rationale and scope The term 'Incidental News' refers to the ways in which people encounter information about current events through digital media when they were not actively seeking the news. The past few years have seen a significant increase in incidental news consumption on digital platforms and social media, accompanied by heightened scholarly attention to the phenomenon. The aim of this issue is to contribute to and develop research on this phenomenon, and its implications on areas such as media consumption habits, journalistic practices, and democratic participation. Research in mass communication and political communication has examined issues related to incidental news consumption since the pioneering work of Downs (1957). Since then, and in particular in relation to the rise of social media, there has been growing interest among scholars related to understanding the causes, dynamics, and consequences of consuming news in an incidental fashion online. The editors invite contributions related to the topic of incidental news, including both rigorous empirical articles (using quantitative, qualitative, computational and/or mixed methods) as well as theoretical articles with conceptualizations and synthesis of relevant literature. Articles should clearly define and delineate their use of the concept incidental news and/or its relation to other concepts used. We are interested in contributions that examine the topic through different methodologies, perspectives (e.g. audiences, texts, media platforms) and contexts. Possible areas of interest include but are not limited to: * ? Causes and Dynamics of incidental news consumption * ? Incidental news consumption across different media channels, platforms and devices * ? Incidental news consumption and journalistic practices * ? Effects of incidental news consumption * ? Conceptual elaboration, historical comparison Instructions for contributors and tentative timeline We invite contributors to send a 750 word abstract and an abbreviated author(s) bio describing previous and current research relating to the special issue theme. Please submit proposals to Neta Kligler-Vilenchik at neta.kv@mail.huji.ac.il by November 30, 2018. The abstract should address the relevance of the proposed article to the special issue theme, detail its methodology and the current status of the research. The editors will then notify authors whether they will be invited to contribute a full article by December 30, 2018. Articles should be submitted by April 30, 2019. Note that all invited articles will still go through full and anonymous peer review, and that being invited to submit a full article is no guarantee of final publication in the themed issue. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

For a time, social media was viewed as a net positive for society. In their 2013 book, The New Digital Age, Google?s Jared Cohen and Eric Schmidt wrote:?Never before have so many people been connected through an instantly responsive network.? In 2015, Mark Zuckerberg, the co-founder and CEO of Facebook, wrote a glowing endorsement of the internet and social media calling it ?a force for peace in the world.? He argued that connecting people through social media would help to bring about a ?shared understanding? of the human condition and build a ?common global community.? Fast forward to 2018, social media is now embroiled in a series of ongoing public scandals involving data abuse and misuse?with the most infamous scandal involving the UK data analytics firm Cambridge Analytica. More troubling is fact that social media has emerged as fertile ground for fostering anti-social behaviour and is an important vector for disinformation, misinformation, and manipulation operations. These realities have further raised users? privacy concerns and challenged public trust in social media, which has resulted in a revitalized call for new legislation and regulation. Considering this context, the International Conference on Social Media & Society invites scholarly and original submissions that explore key questions and central issues related (but not limited) to the 2019 theme of ?Rethinking Privacy and Trust in the Social Media Age.? We welcome research from a wide range of methodological perspectives employing established quantitative, qualitative, and mixed methods as well as innovative approaches that cross interdisciplinary boundaries and expands our understanding of the current and future trends in social media research, especially research that seeks to explore: * What does ?privacy? and ?trust? mean in the social media age? ? How can researchers study and operationalize these constructs? ? What is the relationship between users? trust in social media platforms, their privacy concerns, and their social media adoption and use? ? What are privacy protective technologies that can help to rebuild users? trust in social media? ? Can and how AI-based applications help to rebuild trust in social media and improve the credibility of social media content? * How does social media manipulation affect political trust and tolerance? * How is social media being used to help build and strengthen trust in political, economic, social and cultural realms of society? * What roles do alternative social networking services?such as Diaspora, Mastodon, and Gab.ai?play in the current social media environment where hashtag campaigns?such as #DeleteFacebook, #MAGA and #MeToo?have become prevalent? * What theoretical and methodological tools can researchers rely on for ethical and privacy-protective collection, analysis, and sharing of social media datasets? * What are the consequences of data regulations such as GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation) on the industry and users? Are these regulations effective? * What are emerging successful user engagement models for governments, journalists, financial institutions, marketers, and others in today?s social media landscape? * What is the future of social media research without APIs? * How can we measure authentic (or organic) user engagement while properly accounting for bot-driven (or paid) interactions? * How does algorithmic architecture influence how we discover and interact with others? * What is the role of algorithms played in creating divisive culture in social media? * What are the ethical concerns of algorithms (inclusion, accessibility, discrimination, bots) and how to mitigate them?

It is not only a concentration of power by a few corporations, but also a concentration of the availability of data in individual regions of the world. This includes (exerting) power about data (infra)structures and processes of data creation, data collection, data access, data processing, data interpretation, data storing, data visualisations. The Global in/securities theme of the 2019 Data Power conference attends to questions around these phenomena, asking: How does data power further or contest global in/securities? How are global in/securities constructed through or against data? How do civil society actors, government, people engage with societal and individual in/securities through and with data? What are appropriate ontologies to think about data and persons? How may we envisage a just data society? And what does decolonizing data in/securities look like? This conference creates a space to reflect on these and other critical issues relating to data?s in/security and its decolonizing. Confirmed keynote speakers are: * Virginia Eubanks, University at Albany, USA; * Jack Linchuan Qiu, Chinese University, Hongkong; * Seeta Pe?a Gangadaran, LSE, UK; * Nimmi Rangaswamy, Indian Institute of Information Technology, IIIT, Hyderabad, India.
