SECOND INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE OF YOUNG SCHOLARS
Communication in the Global World, 12-14 November 2004 (Ljubljana,
Slovenia).

CALL FOR PAPERS


The Slovenian Communication Association (SCA) announces an international
conference for young scholars on theoretical and empirical research of
communication in the era of globalization. Young scholars - graduate
students, doctoral candidates and recent PhDs - are invited to present
their recent work in an environment that is hospitable to a diverse
cultural experience. The first conference, held in May 2001, helped
construct a bridge between young scholars from Central Europe and the
two Americas.

The conference allows for a broad range of issues and concerns to be
addressed by the participants with no preferred theoretical or
methodological perspective. Reports on work in progress, such as M.A.
theses or Ph.D. dissertations, are also invited.

About 30 papers will be selected for presentation, and prizes will be
awarded by a panel of expert scholars for outstanding papers. The
special panel includes Hanno Hardt (founding editor of Journal of
Communication Inquiry, Faculty of Social Sciences, Univ. Ljubljana),
Slavko Splichal (editor of Javnost/the Public, Faculty of Social
Sciences, Univ. Ljubljana), and Breda Luthar (Chair of Dept. of
Communication, Faculty of Social Sciences, Univ. Ljubljana)

Abstracts - with brief biographies of authors and their contact
addresses - should be sent by March 1, 2004
(andrej.pinter at guest.arnes.si, vesna.dolnicar at uni-lj.si). Invited
presenters will be notified by April 5, 2004, and final papers must be
received by October 25, 2004.
