The Communication Law & Policy Division of the International Communication Association encourages AOIR members to submit papers and panel proposals in the following areas for the May 23-27 2003 conference in San Diego. Submission deadline is Nov. 1. Internet- related research could fall into several of these categories. Borders of the law: What happens when what has traditionally been acknowledged as law and regulation is supplemented, supplanted, or replaced by other structural forces such as the software and hardware of infrastructure design? Law of border communities: What kinds of legal and regulatory trends in the areas of information, communication, and culture are being seen in border cultures such as maquiladoras? The law as a border: How does the law serve as a border past which communications cannot flow, change cannot occur, or activities cannot be undertaken? Law in a border era: The difficulty of communication law and policy today is that it must find ways of achieving incremental change during a period of radical transitions. How does the transitional, or border, nature of the era affect the nature of law and policy? Paper submissions will be electronic; see conference website at www.icahdq.org. Warning: Submit your paper as early as possible because: (1) inevitably the server handling submissions will be overwhelmed and become unavailable the day of the deadline, and (2) there may be aspects of the process that are unfamiliar to you if you've not submitted papers electronically before. Panel submissions -- 250 word rationale for the panel, 250 word abstracts for each paper to be included, and bio for each panelist -- should go directly to the division chair at the below e-mail address.
