    Our theme in 2020 is (again) WHAT’S WORKING

    Back by popular demand! Last year, we at Prague Media Point decided we had had enough of all the doom and gloom around the media industry. Instead of looking backward at all the problems that have plagued the media in the internet age, we wanted to highlight initiatives, projects, and individuals that are actively countering those trends -- and succeeding. This solution-oriented approach resonated strongly with conference attendees, and based on their positive feedback, we have decided to adopt the same theme. Once again, we are encouraging submissions of abstracts and sessions by scholars and PhD candidates from journalism, media, technology, and other related disciplines focusing on examples in the media that are working and generating impact in the following subjects and topics, though this list is not exhaustive:

    • Innovative ways to cover climate change
    • Pandemic media coverage
    • Media projects to counter polarization and disinformation
    • Technology & security in editorial work and content delivery
    • Effective methods for resisting threats to media freedom
    • Engagement through social media
    • Solutions and constructive journalism
    • Trust-building techniques
    • Different forms of storytelling
    • Innovative business and ownership models
    • Diversity in the newsroom

    Confirmed speakers:

    Prof. Karin Wahl-Jorgensen, Director of Research Development and Environment, School of Journalism, Media and Culture, Cardiff University (UK)

    Prof. Claudia Loebbecke, Department of Media and Technology Management, The Faculty of Economic and Social Sciences, University of Cologne (Germany)

    Special Issue of the Historical Journal of Film, Radio and Television

    Deadline: May 1, 2020

    Following the establishment of the «people´s democracies» in Central and Eastern Europe after World War II, Lenin´s dictum about «film being the most important art» brought change in terms of an improved infrastructure for film production. Often, the Soviet film was seen as a role model for the other Socialist states. The establishment of Socialist film schools or academies, for example, in Czechoslovakia (Prague 1947), Poland (Łódz 1948), Yugoslavia (Belgrade 1948), Romania (Bucuresti 1950), Bulgaria (Sofia 1948), Hungary (Budapest 1948) and the GDR (Potsdam 1954), were all emulated in one way or another after Moscow´s famous VGIK, the first state film school in the world. The idea was, of course, that film was considered an important medium for propaganda and persuasion and that it was necessary to secure Socialist-minded ”cadres” for this cause.

    Yet, despite all measures to carefully regulate the film industry, the level of control varied significantly over time and in the different countries – despite the fact that film, for a number of reasons, lends itself to control. Alternative voices, as a number of examples demonstrate, could be heard in all of the Warsaw Pact states. By looking at filmmaking, exhibition and reception, film education and film criticism, this themed issue of the Historical Journal of Film, Radio and Television considers dissent and dissidents in Central and Eastern European film during the Cold War and its aftermath..

    The Journal has a particular historical/archival focus. We especially, but not exclusively, encourage contributions on the following topics and approaches:

    Confrontations with the hegemonic ideology

    • Questions of censorship
    • Questions concerning relationship with the audience
    • Trans-national aspects, including the exchange of ideas with other states in the Soviet sphere of interest and the relationship with West
    • European and American film industries,
    • Different phases of dissent and dissidents, including the post-1968 years and and the New Left

    Please submit an abstract of 250-300 words and a brief biography before 1 May 2020 to the guest editors, Tobias Hochscherf (tobias.hochscherf@fh-kiel.de ), Bjørn Sørenssen (bjorn.sorenssen@ntnu.no) and Rolf Werenskjold (rof@hivolda.no).

    Final submissions (7000-10 000 words) are due on 1 November 2020. Only submissions that follow Historical Journal of Film, Radio and Television notes for contributors will be considered (https://www.tandfonline.com/action/authorSubmission?show=instructions&journalCode=chjf20).

    All submissions are subject to approval by the blind peer-review process of the journal.

    MAI: FEMINISM AND VISUAL CULTURE

    Deadline: April, May and early June

    https://maifeminism.com/crisis-connection-culture-alternative-responses-to-covid-19/

    MAI: FEMINISM AND VISUAL CULTURE is putting together a special issue on creative connection during this pandemic.

    At this time of crisis because of the COVID-19 pandemic, our ability to physically touch is severely restricted, in order to protect ourselves and others from illness as well as police intervention. This has resulted in an even bigger shift to digital technologies and online interaction with hashtags such as #togetherapart encouraging more culture and connection on the internet in lieu of in-person events and meet-ups. Indeed being in touch is incredibly important: it helps us to stay safe, informed, and connected for our physical and mental health and our overall wellbeing. However, while people are suffering physically, emotionally, and financially, many in positions of power, including some governments and wealthy big business owners, seem more out of touch than ever.

    This call seeks contributions of and on visual culture, broadly defined, including writing, art, short films etc within the themes of COVID-19/crisis and connection. The aim is to create a space for people to connect through the production and consumption of culture during COVID-19, specifically those who are often already the least safe and most silenced in a systemically racist, capitalist, heteropatriarchal society: women; non-binary people; LGBTQ+ people; people of colour; poor and working-class people; people with disabilities; young people; and others who are disenfranchised. The intention is not only to amplify such voices, but also to raise money for those who are struggling financially, or may do so in the near future because of the crisis. Crisis—Connection—Culture is to be published as a special issue of MAI: Feminism and Visual Culture, an open- access online journal of new feminist research and creative work. Potential contributors should, therefore, ensure that both feminist and visual elements are clear foundations for submissions.

    This special issue will cut across arts, humanities, the social sciences and beyond. Individual submissions could focus on: film; television; other screens; social media; comic and graphic novels; photography; painting; theatre; dance; performance; fashion; games and gaming.

    Examples of topics could include but are certainly not limited to:

    • crisis, creativity, and mental health;
    • the shift from in-person to online ‘events’ such as theatre, film
    • festivals and viewing parties, dance classes etc;
    • online ‘events’ and isolation;
    • digital and/or visual activism at a time of crisis;
    • politics, COVID-19, and visual culture;
    • the visual and the haptic;
    • home/work space and the creation of visual culture;
    • inclusivity and accessibility in relation to online culture during COVID-19;
    • the impact of the shift to the digital for survival/connection/culture for those without the technology or knowledge;
    • crisis and cultural innovation;
    • the representation of pandemics, crises etc in visual culture;
    • visual culture and trauma.

    A variety of submissions are welcome, from accessible academic pieces to personal reflections or creative and video responses. Work-in-progress will also be considered. The style guide as well as information about word length etc. can be found here: https://maifeminism.com/submissions/

    We understand that prospective contributors will already have a range of pressing real-life commitments and worries during this crisis (health; finances; childcare etc.) and we would like allow more time for developing your projects/ideas. We will be considering submissions through April, May and early June.

    Please be mindful that everyone has more to deal with right now so do check if the MAI website (linked above) can answer your questions before contacting via e-mail.

    Potential contributions or expressions of interest should be sent to BOTH Leanne Dawson leanne.dawson@ed.ac.uk AND contact@maifeminism.com

    Contributors are encouraged to share their work as well as a donation link (e.g. PayPal if the contributor is in need of money or a link to a food bank or similar for contributors with a secure income) that readers may use to donate directly, if they are in a position to do so.

    Deadline (postponed): May 31, 2020

    Guest Editors: Sarah Geber, Tobias Frey, and Thomas Friemel

    Health and health-related behaviours are embedded in social contexts in various ways, which comprise both risks and opportunities for individual’s health (Sallis & Owen, 2015). Communicable (i.e., infectious) diseases, such as HIV or influenza, are spread through social contacts between persons (e.g., Rothenberg et al., 1998), and unfavorable health behaviours might be reinforced in one's social network (Valente, 2010). On the other hand, social support can ease the coping with diseases in everyday life (e.g., depression; Peirce, Frone, Russell, Cooper, & Mudar, 2000), and social norms may promote favorable health behaviours (e.g., eating healthily; Mollen, Rimal, Ruiter, & Kok, 2013). In the course of the digitalisation, new platforms have emerged that intensify known social processes or enable new ones. On social networking sites, people can directly observe health-related behaviours and thus norms of relevant others (e.g., Beullens & Vandenbosch, 2016); apps allow users to track their health behaviours and share their obtained health goals (e.g., Kristensen & Ruckenstein, 2018); and various online forums provide platforms for exchanging experiences and support regarding specific health issues (e.g., Barak, Boniel-Nissim, & Suler, 2008). Since these social processes unfold their effects through communication, they deserve special attention by health communication scholars to maintain and improve individual and public health.

    The special issue aims to address the complexity of individuals’ social contexts and the full breadth of communication — ranging from interpersonal communication to mass media, online to offline, intended to unintended etc. It therefore calls for papers analyzing the interrelations between social aspects, different forms of health-related communication, and health at the individual, interpersonal, and societal level. Submissions can address but are not limited to the following questions and concepts.

    Individual level:

    • Which health behaviours are especially susceptible to social influence (e.g., private vs. public health behaviour) and what role do different means of communication play in these contexts?
    • How are individual social-related characteristics, such as traits (e.g., need to belong), cognitions (e.g., perceived norms), and motives (e.g., need for social integration) associated with health behaviour and health-related communication?
    • How are media messages elaborated that address social aspects of health behaviour (e.g., social frames)?

    Interpersonal level:

    • Which relevance do different settings have for health communication (e.g., family, colleagues, self-help groups)?
    • Which role do different actors (e.g., doctors, patients, bystanders) and social roles (e.g., opinion leaders, influencers, followers) play in the context of health communication?
    • How does health-related interpersonal communication differ depending on the channel and platform (e.g. face-to-face vs. mediated)?

    Societal level:

    • Which sociocultural aspects (e.g., collectivistic vs. individualistic societies) and characteristics of the media system are relevant regarding health and health communication?
    • What kind of divides related to health communication exist in societies and what are their consequences (e.g., digital divides)?
    • How can societal inequalities and health-related stigmatization be addressed by health communication and what guidelines are helpful for journalists to ease these issues?

    The special issue calls for basic research describing and explaining these aspects but also refers to applied research seeking to solve practical health communication issues. It is interested in theories, methods, and study designs that allow studying social aspects of health communication at different levels as well as the integration of various levels within a single approach.

    Submission format

    We welcome submissions that fit any of the EJHC formats: original research papers, theoretical papers, methodological papers, review articles, brief research reports. For further information on the article types, please see www.ejhc.org/about/submissions.

    Manuscript should be prepared in accordance with the EJHC author guidelines (www.ejhc.org/about/submissions) and be submitted via the journal website (www.ejhc.org).

    Deadline for submission is 31 May 2020.

    Review process

    All articles will undergo a rigorous peer review process. Once the paper has been assessed as appropriate by the editorial management team (with regard to form, content, and quality), it will be peer-reviewed by at least two reviewers in a double-blind review process, meaning that reviewers are not disclosed to authors, and authors are not disclosed to reviewers. To ensure short publication processes, EJHC releases articles online on a rolling basis, expected to start in December 2020.
