The new historiographical paradigms (Biltereyst, Malby, Meers 2019), the relevant boost of film audience studies provided by networks such as HoMER, and the convergence of an increasing number of disciplines around cinema history: geography (Hallam, Roberts 2014; Treveri Gennari, O’Rawe, Hipkins 2019; Celata, Simone 2023), ethnography (Treveri Gennari et al, 2020; Stokes, Jones, Pett 2022; Antichi, Fedele, Garofalo 2023; Wessels et al 2022; Kuhn 2023), phenomenology (Hanich 2017), have, in recent years, produced an important growth in historical knowledge about movie theatres, the public, and, more generally, cinema experiences.
Data-driven approaches and open science models (Deb Verhoeven’s work has been pivotal in this regard) have in addition contributed to deeply transforming the work of scholars, even in traditional fields, such as early cinema (Slugan, Biltereyst 2022), introducing new perspectives, encouraging to intersect many and different sources (Egan-Smith-Terrill, 2021), and developing longitudinal and comparative studies (van Oort, Whitehead, 2023).
The research on movie theatres and moviegoing in Italy has certainly benefited from this conjuncture. However, some aspects and periods have been investigated less (systematically) than others. For example, the long and non-linear phase of the decline of cinemas and cinema-going in Italy, from the 1960s to the 1980s and the subsequent revival, from the second half of the 1990s have been understudied; cinema-going in rural areas and Southern regions, despite being the subject of some pioneering research (Pinna et al, 1958), still largely needs to be investigated. Likewise, the history of entrepreneurs running cinemas in Italy – predominantly family-run enterprises – is a relatively unexplored field. The history of the professions that revolve around cinema (managers, projectionists, cashiers…), in turn need to be completely reconstructed. In the same way, the experience of moviegoers, their relationship with cinema and the role that the viewing experience has taken on in their lives continue to offer many opportunities for study and investigation, strengthened by new investigation techniques and methodologies.
Considering this landscape, this special issue aims to analyze how cinema and movie theatres shaped the history of territories, businesses, and people in the past and present, with a particular but non-exclusive focus on the case of Italy.
Special attention will be given to papers proposing new methodologies and perspectives, also using data-driven approaches, and/or papers involving comparative studies with the case of Italy.
Proposals on non-standard cinemas (such as small gauge cinemas, parish cinemas, drive-in cinemas, cinemas in hospitals) or ephemeral cinemas (Vélez-Serna 2020) (arenas, travelling cinemas…) are also encouraged.
Potential topics include, but are not limited to:
- Ephemeral cinemas (Vélez-Serna 2020);
- Cinemas and public fundings;
- Cinemas and public regulations:
- Geospatial analysis of cinemas;
- Cinemas in depressed areas;
- Cinemas in industrial districts;
- Cinemas in Northern and Southern Italy;
- Cinemas and tourist areas;
- Cinema exhibition: management models;
- Movie theatres as family businesses;
- History of male/female cinema exhibitors;
- Cinemas as a workplace: roles and professions;
- Cinemas and moviegoing: data, memories, ephemerals;
- Moviegoing in urban vs. rural areas;
- Cinemas and fragile audiences: Cinemas and minors, Cinemas and female audiences, Cinemas and disadvantaged audiences, Cinemas and ‘second-generation’ audiences.

AAU, Copenhagen, Denmark (on-site and online)
Deadline: February 2, 2024
Considering the recent climate developments and resulting socio-economic disparities, questions that address media and communication from a broader sustainability perspective have become increasingly urgent. Yet, they reside far too often at the periphery of media and communication research and practice. SMiD 2024 seeks to raise awareness and address these issues, fostering a critical discussion on the role of media and communication in relation to the notion of sustainability. We understand sustainability as defined by the United Nations Brundtland Commission in 1987, as “meeting the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs”. We address the topic in its broadest possible sense, ranging from environmental, economic, and political Issues to social well-being. Contributions are invited through both the open call and the themed call. More information: https://www.foreningen-smid.dk/index.php/aarsmoede-2024/
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
1. News media: e.g., climate reporting and climate framing, sustainable news production, resilience journalism, news media, and political power.
2. The ”good” life and datafied living: e.g., balancing personal lifestyle choices and their environmental consequences, navigating environmental data and environmental practices.
3. Everyday practices and sustainability: e.g., upcycling practices, civil movements, and reimagining everyday practices for a sustainable future.
4. Organizational practices: e.g., authenticity vs. greenwashing, communication, AI, and digital sustainability.
5. Sustainable communication: e.g., new ways of explaining the impacts media habits induce on the climate and environment, communicating these challenges,
6. Politics and governance: e.g., communication practices of political parties, issues in climate governance, political and institutional decision-making.
The special issue resulting from the themed call will be guest edited by Mikkel Fugl Eskjær, Aalborg University, Denmark, Sandra Simonsen, Aarhus University, Denmark, Henrik Bødker, Aarhus University, Denmark og Martina Skrubbeltrang Mahnke, Roskilde University, Denmark.

Fakultet, institution och forskningsmiljö
Fakulteten för kultur och samhälle
Vid Fakulteten för kultur och samhälle forskar och undervisar vi om många av vår tid stora frågor – exempelvis de som handlar om global politik, nya medier och hållbar stadsutveckling – från humanistiska, samhällsvetenskapliga och designvetenskapliga utgångspunkter. Vi är en kreativ, föränderlig och gränsöverskridande akademisk miljö som präglas en hög grad av internationalisering och samverkan med andra, såväl inom som utanför akademin. Vår verksamhet är placerad mitt i Malmö, men våra perspektiv omfattar hela världen. Vi är organiserade i tre institutioner: Urbana studier, Globala politiska studier och Institutionen för konst, kultur och kommunikation. Läs mer om Kultur och samhälle här.
Institutionen för konst, kultur och kommunikation (K3)
Institutionen för Konst, Kultur och Kommunikation (K3) har cirka 100 medarbetare och 1200 studenter och erbjuder tvärvetenskapliga utbildningar på grund-, avancerad och forskarutbildningsnivå inom media, kultur och design. Vi är inriktade på kreativ, kollaborativ och kritisk forskning och utbildning med ett stort offentligt engagemang. Vi erbjuder ett brett spektrum av forsknings- och utbildningssamarbeten i en miljö som fått högsta betyg i ERA19s forskningsutvärdering. Här kombineras traditionell vetenskaplig och akademisk teori med konstnärliga metoder och praktiska moment. Vi för samman konst, kultur, teknik, design och kommunikation på nya och innovativa sätt, i både pedagogik och forskning. Läs mer om K3, inklusive vår utbildning, samverkan och forskning här.
Enheten för Medie- och kommunikationsvetenskap
Mediaenheten består av lärare, forskare och doktorander. Våra utbildningar har en inriktning på kritik, handling och gestaltning som innebär ett brett angreppsätt på medier och kommunikation. En central tematik är kritisk teoretisk kunskap om mediernas villkor, betydelser och användning i olika sammanhang. En annan tematik är att genom handling navigera och producera i och genom olika medier, bland annat i form av egna projekt och gestaltningar. Utbildningen utgår ifrån ett studentaktivt lärande i olika former där studenten utvecklar sin ämnesmässiga kompetens samt förmåga till analys, kommunikation och gestaltning.
Följande program finns på enheten:
Vi har även fristående kurser inom mediaproduktion och undervisar på andra program på K3.
Forskning inom Media miljön
K3 lockar lärare och forskare inom flera olika discipliner. Medie- och kommunikationsvetenskap vid Institutionen för konst, kultur och kommunikation (K3) studerar mediers betydelse för kultur och samhälle samt för mänskligt tänkande och vardagsliv, detta både ur ett historiskt och ett samtida perspektiv.
Forskningsprojekt kan handla om allt från digitala medier, aktivism och sociala rörelser, medieproduktionsprocesser och journalistik, publikaktiviteter, migration, algoritmer, datafiering och datakulturer, extremism och nät-radikalisering, kriskommunikation, museer och arkivprocesser, samt frågor om kultur och klass. En stor del av forskningen görs tillsammans med externa aktörer. Det gemensamma för forskningen är ett kritiskt perspektiv med fokus på föränderliga maktrelationer, intersektionalitetsfrågor och handlingsperspektiv.

This handbook critically analyzes cross‐border news production and “transnational journalism cultures” in the evolving field of cross-border journalism. As the era of the internet has further expanded the border‐transcending production, dissemination and reception of news, and with transnational co‐operations like the European Broadcasting Union and BBC World News demonstrating different kinds of cross‐border journalism, the handbook considers the field with a range of international contributions. It explores cross-border journalism from conceptual and empirical angles and includes perspectives on the the systemic contexts of cross‐border journalism, its structures and routines, changes in production processes, and the shifting roles of actors in digital environments. It examines cross-border journalism across regions and concludes with discussions on the future of cross-border journalism, including the influence of automation, algorithmisation, virtual reality and AI.
