To all concerns:
Thanks for this note. It is always a welcomed bonus to receive solid reference titles to materials that are significant to a selected concern. This is especially so when fortune and finance denies us a chance to directly participate in an intriguing session of discovery and development on an important area of investigation. While I can not attend, I would like to contribute 2 references to those interested in the empowerment of people (Voice) in an increasingly disconnected and muted society. I hope these contribute: Bruce E. Woych , Kingston NY

Friday February 7, 2pm Nick Couldry (LSE Sociology) ‘Practices of Listening:
Or, What it might mean to take Voice Seriously’
Part of The Listening Workshop run by the Humanities and Arts Research Centre at
Royal Holloway http://www.rhul.ac.uk/harc/home.aspx
11 Bedford Square, London WC1B 3RF.
This workshop will explore the concept of ‘voice’ and the related concept of
‘listening’ as both theoretical contributions and as the basis of empirical
research in relation to everyday life in neoliberal democracies and more under
other conditions of power across the world. It will examine how voice, and
deprivation of voice, can be studied (for example, sociologically), by drawing
on a variety of examples. Participants are encouraged who are either interested
in using these concepts in their own research and/or are already conducting
research that operationalizes them.
