[Air-l] FW: Call for papers on ICT and Society

[Gina Neff]

- For STS scholars in the Southern states and beyond,

The Mid South Sociological Association (MSSA) is
calling for papers for an 'Internet and Society'
session.

The conference is November 5-8 in Baton Rouge,
Louisiana.  At the present, the Internet and
Society session is penciled in for November 5.  It
hopes to attract a broad range of multi-disciplinary
work in this new and growing field.  That means you
don't have to be classified as a sociologist to attend
or present.

The conference site is

As a side note, there will be a workshop/roundtable on
'sociologists as activists' featuring local
environmental activists and scholars in the movement,
highlighting the unique social challenges of doing
scholarly research on the front lines of the
environmental movement.  Other related topics will
include gender and minority activism.

Thank you
