CFP: IAFOR Journal of Media, Communication and Film Issue 6
Theme: Interrogating Social Movements
Earlier this year, the IAFOR MediAsia 2018 conference featured a theme of ‘Fearful Futures’ that encouraged scholars to reflect upon the role of arts, humanities, media and cultural studies in the contemporary global context of information/disinformation exchange, national and international tensions and polarised politics.
This issue of IAFOR Journal of Media, Communication and Film extends this theme with a specific focus on social movements. It encourages scholars to examine how social movements form, spread and are represented in our contemporary social media age; to evaluate the impact of social movements; and to consider the national and international contexts of social movements.
Authors are encouraged to consider the implications of social movements within specific socio-political and cultural contexts.
Topics can include, but are not limited to:
* Social media and social movements
* Disinformation and social movements
* Misappropriation of social movements
* Class, gender, race and social movements
* Social movements and journalism
* Social movements and documentary
* Social movements and film/television/photography
