ICA 2023 Preconference on the Legacies of Elihu Katz
by Park, David 02 Dec '22

02 Dec '22

CFP: ICA Preconference on the Legacies of Elihu Katz Preconference date & location: 25 May 2023, as part of the International Communication ‘Association annual conference at the Sheraton Centre Toronto Hotel Submission deadline: 20 December 2022. (there is no registration fee for this preconference) Elihu Katz (1926–2021) was a peerless scholar, colleague, mentor, administrator, and friend to many in the field of communication. His passing has left the field with an absence that calls out for remembrance and for scholarly consideration. This one-day, all-plenary preconference will create a space for scholarly exchange on Katz’s life, works, and themes—a forum, in other words, for active, critical engagement with his legacy for the field. The preconference invites presenters to explore, critique, and extend Katz’s contributions to communication scholarship. Some will situate Katz’s legacies in pertinent historical contexts; others will use his work to imagine media futures; still others will consider Katz’s many roles (teacher, institution-builder, broadcast pioneer, mentor). Some lines of inquiry presenters may wish to explore include, but are not limited to, the following topics: * considerations of journalism and the public that draw upon Katz’s configurations of Gabriel Tarde’s ideas * explorations of the promise and limitations of the idea of the media ritual * elaborations upon the idea of the two-step flow of media effects * diffusion processes in varied media and networks * the evolution and contemporary significance of the concept of media events * perspectives on Katz’s ideas that come from disparate subfields in communication, including but not limited to: interpersonal communication, organizational communication, and intercultural communication * philosophical interrogations of Katz’s ideas and research empirical studies that draw explicitly on Katz’s ideas, for instance cross-cultural readings of American television inspired by the Export of Meaning* (his co-authored book with Tamar-Liebes) * Shifts of emphasis in media studies between content providers and audiences * Katz’s place in the canon of media studies * new ideas concerning the Katzian intersection of mass communication and interpersonal communication * transpositions of Katz’s ideas into new arenas, like human-machine communication and virtual reality * historical scholarship addressing: * Katz’s involvement in broadcasting and mass media, including his role as a creator of Israeli Television * the export of Katz’s ideas to communication and media studies departments around the world * the impact of Katz’s ideas on academic fields and areas of practice outside of communication Abstracts of 400 words (maximum), in Spanish or English, should be submitted no later than 20 December 2022. Draft papers will be pre-circulated in advance of the preconference, with all participants expected to read in advance. Send abstracts to the pre-conference organizers at: legaciesofkatz(a)gmail.com<mailto:legaciesofkatz@gmail.com><mailto:legaciesofkatz@gmail.com<mailto:legaciesofkatz@gmail.com>> Presenters will work within a timeline established to ensure that full papers are available for password-protected precirculation a month or more before the preconference, on the expectation that presented and non-presenters attendees read the papers in advance. The benefit of pre-circulation is that the bulk of time devoted to each panel can be given over to discussion among presenters and other attendees. Authors will be informed regarding acceptance/rejection no later than 10 January 2023. The preconference will take place on 25 May, 2023, and will be *free to all participants*, thanks to generous support from the Department of Communication and the Smart Family Institute of Communications at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, the Annenberg School for Communication and Journalism at the University of Southern California, and the Annenberg School for Communication at the University of Pennsylvania.

CfP GIG-ARTS 2023: "The Governance of Cybersecurity: Resilience, Human Rights and Democracy" 15-16 May, Padova
by Mauro SANTANIELLO 02 Dec '22

02 Dec '22

Dear colleagues, We hope this message finds you well. We are glad to announce that *The Seventh European Multidisciplinary Conference on Global Internet Governance Actors, Regulations, Transactions and Strategies (GIG-ARTS 2023) will be held in Padova, Italy, on 15-16 May 2023*. Please thus find hereafter the CFP for the GIG-ARTS 2023 Conference. Feel free to disseminate this call. Submissions are already open, we are looking forward to receiving your abstracts describing your latest research work and we very much hope to see you in Padova! Best regards, GIG-ARTS 2023 Organizing Committee: Joanna Kulesza, Meryem Marzouki, Claudia Padovani, Maria Stella Righettini, and Mauro Santaniello ===== *GIG-ARTS 2023 - The Seventh European Multidisciplinary Conference on Global Internet Governance Actors, Regulations, Transactions and Strategies15-16 May 2023, PadovaThe Governance of Cybersecurity: Resilience, Human Rights and Democracy* *events.gig-arts.eu/gig-arts2023 <http://events.gig-arts.eu/gig-arts2023>* *Call for Abstracts - Deadline: 26 February 2023 *While during the early stage of Internet development security concerns were generally dealt with as a regulation matter with law enforcement authorities fighting cybercrime, cybersecurity has recently become one of the most debated and controversial issue in the field of internet governance. Cyberattacks have changed in nature and intensity: their growing number; the variety of their targets (public institutions, critical infrastructures and utilities, large and strategic companies); in some cases the terrorist and/or quasi-military objectives of their proven or alleged authors, sponsors or beneficiaries; the expansion of their surface, making profit of digitalization progresses in all sectors; together with the escalation of geopolitical tensions and conflicts; are all features pushing cybersecurity issues to the top of the agendas of both public and private actors. The increasing relevance of cybersecurity is reshaping state powers, public administration, private businesses, civil society and academic research as well. New agencies, procedures, and structures have been institutionalised both by national governments and international organisations to deal with cybersecurity policy problems. New power relations are being established, both inside and beyond the state. Governments, both at the national and local levels, are still struggling to find their own governance structures and set of instruments in the range of different cybersecurity models (e.g. cyber defence, cyber offence, cyber resilience, etc.) and their possible implementations. The provision of public goods and services is undergoing a profound re-design and re-engineering process led by cybersecurity concerns, that implies new models of citizenship and new modes of public administration. Private companies are facing new challenges, often dealing with a shortage of skills and competences of the workforce, while new companies and new business models are emerging around the transnational market of cybersecurity. At the global level, states, through their representatives at the United Nations and its different bodies, confirmed that international law applies online as it does offline. They also identified the need to better understand how international law could be applied in cyberspace, with issues of attribution, liability, sovereignty, rule of law and due diligence being raised. Given the multistakeholder feature of global internet governance, private companies have also jumped in with their own proposals, promoting their roles as possible norms entrepreneurs. Technical management and standardisation organisations have a prominent role to play as well when dealing with global cybersecurity. As a consequence, new research agendas and scientific perspectives on cybersecurity are consolidating, shaping a novel multidisciplinary field of inquiry that is not only exceeding the original field of internet governance, but seems also phagocytizing it: internet governance as an issue of cybersecurity governance. After having addressed “Global Internet Governance as a Diplomacy Issue” at its first edition in 2017, “Overcoming Inequalities in Internet Governance” in 2018, “Europe as a Global Player in Internet Governance” in 2019, “Online Information Governance” in 2020, and “Global Internet Governance and International Human Rights” in 2022, the European Multidisciplinary Conference on Global Internet Governance Actors, Regulations, Transactions and Strategies turns its attention this year to the governance of cybersecurity, in view of further investigating and inquiring the political, economic and epistemic transformations connected to the rise of cybersecurity and how they impact on democracy and human rights. In addition to general internet governance issues and topics, submissions are particularly welcome on the following themes: - Cybersecurity and democracy: civil liberties and human rights; - Cybersecurity, citizenship and digital sovereignty; - Institutionalisation of cybersecurity as a field of public policy; - From cybersecurity to cyber resilience: risk analysis, organisational challenges and capacity building; - Models and typologies of cybersecurity; - Relationships between cybersecurity and internet governance; - New theoretical frameworks and methods for the study of cybersecurity; - Cybersecurity and public administration digitalization; - The cybersecurity market and business models; - New technological developments and cybersecurity; - Cybersecurity narratives: policy discourses, cultures and ideologies; - Cybersecurity strategies, policies, instruments, and their implementation; - Multilateral and multistakeholder discussions and instruments for the global governance of cybersecurity; - Cybersecurity in international relations: cyber warfare, cyber peace, diplomacy and international law; - Cybersecurity in Europe Union strategy and policies. *Submission information*Authors are invited to submit their extended abstracts (no longer than 500 words), describing their research question(s), theoretical framework, approach and methodology, expected findings or empirical outcome. Submitted abstracts will be evaluated through a peer-review process.
