AMERICAN JOURNALISM HISTORIANS ASSOCIATION 2024 CALL FOR PAPERS, PANELS, AND RESEARCH IN PROGRESS The American Journalism Historians Association invites paper entries, panel proposals, and abstracts of research in progress on any facet of media history for its 43rd annual convention to be held in Oct. 3-5, 2024, in Pittsburgh, PA.
PANELS Panels may relate to any original topic relevant to journalism history, presenting a variety of perspectives that will draw the audience and panelists into meaningful discussion or debate. Preference will be given to panels that present diverse perspectives on their topics, and organizers should consider diversity in race and gender in selecting panelists. AJHA accepts panel proposals through an online form that requires the following:
No individual may serve on more than one panel.Panel organizers must secure commitments from panelists to participate before submitting the proposal. Moderators are discussion facilitators and may not serve as panelists. Questions about panel submissions can be directed to Susan Swanberg of the University of Arizona (swanberg@arizona.edu), who is coordinating the panel competition. Authors of panel proposals will be notified in mid-July whether their panels have been accepted. The Research in Progress category is for work that will not be completed before the conference. Participants will give an overview of their research purpose and progress, not a paper presentation, as the category’s purpose is to allow for discussion and feedback on work in progress.
Send research in progress proposals to ajharip@gmail.com. Authors will be notified in mid-July whether their proposals have been accepted. Questions about submissions can be directed to Gwyneth Mellinger of James Madison University (mellingx@jmu.edu), who is coordinating the Research in Progress competition. |
