Call for Book Chapter Proposals: Stigma as Communication. Deadline: abstract only, 20 February 2026.
Editors: Rebecca J. Meisenbach and Rikki A. Roscoe
The authors invite chapter proposals for an edited scholarly volume titled Stigma as Communication, which examines stigma not merely as an attribute or social label, but as a communicative process that shapes identities, relationships, and institutions. Building on contemporary stigma scholarship across communication studies, sociology, public health, psychology, and cultural studies, this book seeks to illuminate how stigma is and can be produced, circulated, resisted, and transformed through and as communication.
