Call for Papers: Transnational Journalism History Conference, June 20-21, Groningen, The Netherlands. Deadline: March 1, 2019.
The fourth annual conference on Transnational Journalism History is seeking papers that study historical transformations in journalism from a transnational perspective, discussing theoretical or methodological issues as well as empirical case studies from all parts of the world. Specifically, we invite contributions that consider:
– the transfer of norms, practices and textual conventions from one country/region to another and their consecutive adaptation in national contexts
– transnational networks of actors
– biographical studies of transnational agents such as journalists or publishers
– the transnational coverage of particular news stories
– transnational audiences
– the impact of (emerging) technologies on transnational journalism
– different media such as television, radio, newspapers or magazines, and the intersection between them
