2018 call with a special volume commemorating the 30th anniversary of the
CITAMS section.


The deadline for all three volumes is next Monday February 12, 2018.



*CITAMS at 30*

This special anniversary volume commemorates the 30th anniversary of the
CITAMS section. Submissions are welcome that explore any topic relevant to
the thirty-year section history or the future of the section in years to
come. Topics include but are not limited to communication, information
technologies, and media sociology. Guest editors are Wenhong Chen and Barry
Wellman.


*Call for Theorizing the Digital: Social Theory and Digital Culture*
We welcome submissions using a wide variety of data and analytic
techniques, assuming they are rigorously employed.  We also welcome
theoretical submissions, assuming they focus squarely on the topic of the
volume. Methodological papers will be considered as long as they are
grounded in theoretical concerns.

The scope of the volume is wide and includes application of classical and
contemporary theorists in media contexts. Any topic that engages the
volume’s theme is welcome. Potential topics could include: ethics,
practices, and politics of “big data”; self, identity, and community;
privacy, publicity and surveillance; personal and algorithmic patterns of
curation; social network formation, maintenance, and change; news and
(dis)information; visual representations; memes and virality; politics;
mediated embodiment, etc. Lead editor is Jeremy Schulz with guest editors
Gabe Ignatow and Jenny Davis.

*Call for Power, Media, and Everyday Life: Expanding the Intersectional*
We welcome submissions using a wide variety of data and analytic
techniques, assuming they are rigorously employed, and theoretical or
methodological submissions, assuming they focus squarely on the topic of
the volume. The scope of this volume is wide, as it aims to contribute
phenomenological and epistemic knowledge to the growing field of
intersectionality. Submissions are welcome on any topics that speak to
intersectionality as it relates to media including gender, race/ethnicity,
class, sexuality, and ability. In addition, we are also especially
interested in papers that expand and broaden the discourse of
intersectionality vis-à-vis media to include: Parenthood, Community,
Religion, Nationality, Immigration, Language, Political Association, Aging,
etc. Lead editor is Apryl Williams with guest editor Ruth Tsuria.
