[Air-L] Call for Papers: "Platformed Mormonism"

[Greenhalgh, Spencer P.]

AoIR colleagues,

The Journal of the Mormon Social Science Association (JMSSA) is accepting submissions for a special issue exploring the intersection of Mormon traditions and digital platforms. Papers accepted for the special issue will receive an honorarium of up to USD 1,000. We welcome interdisciplinary perspectives that explore how the technological, architectural, and political structures of digital platforms are not only governing how Mormonism is perceived, represented, and encountered by the broader public but also mediating and reshaping belief, practice, and community across various Mormon traditions. We welcome both scholarly/empirical studies and shorter reflective submissions.

The special editors will work around a series of rolling deadlines beginning on June 1, 2026 and extending through March 1, 2027, with papers published as they are reviewed, accepted, and prepared for publication. Authors whose work is accepted for peer review will be asked to peer-review other submissions. More details about scope, submission, and honoraria can be found on the JMSSA website at: https://jmssa.org/cfp-platformed-mormonism/ I am also happy to answer questions off list.

This is a niche area of research, but we at JMSSA would love to see submissions with all of the expertise of AoIR brought to Mormon phenomena and contexts! Feel free to share with those outside of the mailing list who may have an interest in this topic.

Best,

Spencer
