CALL FOR PAPERS Forms of production in the cultural and creative industries: boundaries and meanings
by Alessandra Micalizzi 25 Oct '23

25 Oct '23

Dear Colleagues, We are glad to share the call for papers for the first book of the book-series 2024 of Communication Processes and Cultural Practices. ---------------- Cultural and creative industries (CCIs) encompass visual and performing arts, literature, and music, but also design, fashion, cultural heritage, and publishing (Sawyer, 2014; Razzoli et al., 2020). This concept also includes cultural and communicative processes (Casey and O’Brien, 2020). With few notable excep tions (Hesmondalgh and Baker, 2015; Snowball and Hadisi, 2020), social science has not yet set out to offer a systematic treatment of the field and its labor and organizational processes. However, forms of production within the CCIs are a promising subject of investigation for social scientists. Firstly, because formality and informality overlap more in cultural work (Banks, 2007) than in other sectors (Micalizzi, 2022; OECD, 2021). This is because it is presented as “cool” and apparently fun work (Hesmon- dalgh and Baker, 2015; Been and Keune, 2020). However, its organization often conceals dynamics of power and exploitation. A class dimension seems to be evident, with some jobs being considered prestigious and others second-class (Hesmondalgh, 2012), as well as a gender dimension, with several studies in diffe- rent sectors that have shown that there exists a deep occupational segregation (Rocchi et al., 2023; Micalizzi, 2022). Moreover, the critical contractual and organizational issues in these worlds are illustrated by the fact that in 2020, the Covid pandemic will lead to the loss of at least 10 million jobs in CCIs worldwide (UNESCO 2021). Finally, “over-the-top” platforms (Abreu et al., 2016; Magaudda, 2020) and the unexpected risks of automation associated with using artificial intelligence raise new questions about the future of work in this sector (Mazzone and Elgammal, 2019; Anantrasirichai and Bull, 2022). The call for papers invites theoretical and empirical, qualitative and quantitative research con- tributions that focus specifically on: - What are the boundaries of CCIs? - What does it mean to produce culture? Streaming platforms and new ways of producing CCIs - The types and forms of inequalities in the CCIs - Artificial Intelligence and the transformation of working and producing processes in CCIs. Authors are invited to send their proposals to culturalpractices_proposal(a)writeupbooks.com including an abstract of the book (no more than 800 words included bibliography), and a short bibliography. The abstract must clearly shed light on goals, methods and main results of the research, if the paper will be an empirical focus. The deadline for the submission of the proposals will be December the 22nd (2023). - Notifications of acceptance will be sent before the end of January. - Final version of the paper is due to the end of march. - The publication is foreseen for the end of June 2024. The proposals could be in Italian or in English. For any question about the topic, please send an email to the editors: Rebecca Paraciani- University of Bologna - rebecca.paraciani2(a)unibo.it Lorenzo Cattani- University of Bologna - lorenzo.cattani3(a)unibo.it -------------- Here more information about the book series and the board: https://www.writeupbooks.com/communication-processes-and-cultural-practices/ Hope to read you really soon! best regards -- Alessandra Micalizzi ------------------------------------------------- cell. 3492928386 http://iulm.academia.edu/AlessandraMicalizzi http://www.linkedin.it/AlessandraMicalizzi *************************************************************** Ai sensi del d.lgs. 196/2003, si comunica che le informazioni contenute in questa e-mail e negli eventuali allegati sono rivolte esclusivamente al destinatario in indirizzo e possono contenere informazioni riservate e/o coperte da segreto professionale, il cui utilizzo, comunicazione e diffusione sono vietati.

Popular Culture Studies Journal call for reviews
by Christopher John Olson 24 Oct '23

24 Oct '23

The Popular Culture Studies Journal<https://www.mpcaaca.org/popular-culture-studies-journal> is seeking authors to review works on any aspect of American or international popular culture. Specifically, we are interested in reviews of recent (i.e., published within the last two years) scholarly monographs or anthologies and general interest books examining all areas of popular culture from a variety of perspectives. We will also consider older seminal pieces that deserve a second look. For a list of books to review, please visit Booklist for Reviews<https://www.mpcaaca.org/about-5>. In addition, we are soliciting reviews of films, videos, websites, games (both digital and analog), theater, or any other popular works that have been published, released, performed or posted in the last two years. Once again, we will also consider older seminal works that deserve a second look. We only ask that reviews of popular media texts highlight how such works might be used in pedagogical or scholarly situations. If you wish to review a popular media text, you must submit a brief rationale for the relevance of the review. A short paragraph outlining why you think the text is worthy of review in the journal will suffice. Reviews should adhere to the ethos of the Popular Culture Studies Journal, meaning they should be largely positive with any criticism of the work being constructive in nature. For more information about this journal, please visit the Popular Culture Studies Journal<https://www.mpcaaca.org/popular-culture-studies-journal> website<https://www.mpcaaca.org/popular-culture-studies-journal>. Written reviews should be roughly 800-1,000 words and should be typed, double-spaced with 12-point Times New Roman font. Research and documentation must adhere to The MLA Handbook for Writers of Research Papers and The MLA Style Manual, 8th edition, which requires a Works Cited list with parenthetical author/page references in the text. Punctuation, capitalization, hyphenation, and other matters of style must also follow The MLA Handbook and The MLA Style Manual. Additional information can be found at the Purdue Online Writing Lab website<https://owl.purdue.edu/owl/research_and_citation/mla_style/mla_formatting_a…>. If you are interested in submitting any alternative form of review, please contact reviews editor Christopher J. Olson directly with your proposed format. Guidelines will be determined depending on the proposed format. Reviews should be sent electronically to Christopher J. Olson at olson429(a)uwm.edu with "PCSJ Review" and the author’s last name in the subject line. Reviews should include both the review and the reviewer’s complete contact information (name, university affiliation, address and email). Reviews should be sent as Microsoft Word attachments in .doc or .docx format, unless an alternative format has been approved by the editor. To be considered for the April issue, reviews must be submitted by February 28th. To be considered for the October issue, reviews must be submitted by August 31st. If you are interested in reviewing for the Popular Culture Studies Journal or if you are an author or publisher with a work you would like to have reviewed, then please contact the reviews editor at the following address or email: Christopher J.

Innovative Methods Seminars [online]
by Gemma Milne 24 Oct '23

24 Oct '23

[Apologies for cross-posting!] Hi everyone, I’m organising 2 'Innovative Methods seminars' as part of the University of Glasgow’s College of Social Science Digital Society & Economy Interdisciplinary Research Theme - I'd love to invite you all! We've got 2 ace speakers and the sessions are online - more details on both below, hope to see some of you there! About the Innovative Methods Seminar series: Our workshops run for 50 min. each with time for presentation and Q&A. We will have one speaker per each event and all events will be hosted online, via Zoom. Every speaker will share their digital methodology/methods and the project in which the methodology was applied or developed, with a particular focus on the innovative aspects of that methodology, including benefits, challenges, ethical dimensions, challenges, etc. The audience for these workshops are members of the Digital Society and Economy Interdisciplinary Research Theme, including peer scholars and doctoral students. -- Innovative Methods seminar: Data-driven Investigations – The Algorithmic Audit Friday November 3rd (online): 12pm-1pm (UK time) Book here: https://events.bookitbee.com/university-of-glasgow-107/innovative-methods-s… Data-driven Investigations – The Algorithmic Audit How do we systematically investigate technology, and where do we even start? Leon Yin, data journalist at Bloomberg, will share how to approach data-driven investigations by walking through several case studies along with the tools and decisions that his team made to hold technology and its creators accountable. About our speaker: Leon Yin is an award-winning data journalist at Bloomberg. He builds datasets and develops methods to investigate the social impacts of technology. He writes Inspect Element<https://inspectelement.org/>: a practitioner's guide to auditing algorithms and hypothesis-driven investigations.

But workers pay the price, and have no say in the future they are made to build, which for most will be a dystopia. Around the world, workers are rising up against Amazon and similar corporations, but what kind of future do workers want? About our speaker: Max Haiven<http://maxhaiven.com/> is a writer and teacher and Canada Research Chair in the Radical Imagination.
