CONFERENCE THEMES

The theme of the MeCCSA 2014 conference is ‘media and the margins’, the engagement of marginalised and minority groups with the media. We invite papers that address this theme, examining how we might advance thinking on for example: changes to representation of marginalised groups, participation and power relations, new and alternative media practices, the role of media policy, public service media, development communication and media for social change.

We also welcome scholarly papers, panels, practice contributions, film screenings, and posters across the full range of interests represented by MeCCSA and its networks, including, but not limited to:

- Film and television studies and practice
- Radio studies and practice
- Cultural and media policy
- Representation, identity, ideology
- Creativity and digital spaces
- The value and future of journalism
- Approaches to media pedagogy
- Children, young people and media
- Social networking and interactive media
- Participatory/alternative/citizens’/community media
- Diasporic and ethnic minority media
- Political communication
- (New) media narratives
- Methodological approaches
- MeCCSA subject areas as disciplines

Abstracts of 250 words should be submitted for peer review by:
Monday 16th September 2013.

Alongside the conference programme will be a series of cultural events – screenings, tours, exhibitions, and of course the traditional pub quiz!

Panelists should indicate if they are willing to be considered separately.

Practice
We are keen to support the presentation of media practice work, in particular when there is insufficient time to present full work during paper presentation. To this end we will allocate a presentation space for practice artefacts which includes screenings, computer based work and multi screen work (where possible). For practice please include specific technical requirements (e.g. duration, format) and an URL pointing to practice support material. If you have any questions about your practice submission, please contact Trevor Hearing via email: [log in to unmask]<mailto:[log in to unmask]>
