The Conflict Conference (TCC) will hold its first annual conference at the University of Texas at Austin (UT-Austin) on April 10-11, 2014. TCC is a multidisciplinary annual conference promoting the study of conflict and conflict resolution. We invite papers on any relevant topic, such as apologies, advocacy, dispute resolution, peace, negotiation, reconciliation, mediation, restorative justice, conflict management, and ethics.
The DEADLINE for submissions is 10 DECEMBER 2013. Notices of acceptance will be sent no later than 31 January 2014. Paper proposals must include the author’s name and institutional affiliation, the title of the paper, and an abstract of no more than 150 words for the program. In addition, proposals must include a 600 word extended abstract without personal information. (Be as specific as you can, even if your project is still gestating.) Documents must be attached to an email as a pdf or Word document. TCC welcomes submissions from students. Please indicate student status in all paper proposals. Please send all proposals to TCC.
Conference panels will be held on Thursday, April 10th, and Friday, April 11th on the UT-Austin campus. Keynote speakers will address the conference both Thursday and Friday. TCC will host a cocktail mixer the evening of Thursday, April 10th at a nearby off- campus location and host a closing party off campus Friday, April 11th. A detailed schedule will be sent to participants at a later date. A conference registration fee of USD $25.00 is required. Watch for updates on our webpage.
This conference is sponsored by the UT Project for Conflict Resolution.
UPDATE May 12, 2014: This round of micro grants has been completed – see the results. As further micro grants become available, they will be described on the website.
The Center for Intercultural Dialogue will distribute micro grants for intercultural dialogue from a pool of $5000 made available by the Association for Business Communication. These micro grants are intended to support either or both of the two types of activities described in the mission of the Center: study of intercultural dialogues by Communication scholars, and/or participation in intercultural dialogue through academic interactions between Communication scholars based in different countries, or different linguistic and cultural regions. These grants are sufficient to provide seed funding only: no more than $1000 maximum can be awarded to any one individual. The goal is to encourage international, intercultural, interlingual collaborative research by giving enough funding to offset the cost of airfare only, while providing opportunity (and cause) for matching grants from universities.
If you already have multiple international connections, this grant is not for you – obviously you don’t need it. But if you are at a small college, or if you are a new scholar, or have not yet established significant international connections related to research, you are the intended audience for this competition. If you have been reading publications by an international scholar on a topic of potential relevance to your own research, consider a short trip to discuss ways to collaborate on a future project. If you do not know who has been doing relevant work, check the sources you’ve been reading lately, ask your colleagues, and/or think about who you know from graduate school or who you have met (or heard present an intriguing paper) at a conference. Find someone with similar interests but who takes a different theoretical or methodological stance by virtue of being based in a different cultural context.
The intention is to support the development of new intercultural, professional connections. Thus continuing collaborations are ineligible. Those based in the US are expected to propose travel outside the country. International scholars currently living outside their country of origin are asked to establish a new affiliation in a different region rather than proposing a return to their homeland. We recognize that much interesting work can be done within a country between cultural groups, however this grant program focuses on connecting researchers who are not yet connected, across cultural regions that are typically disconnected. This rationale of cross-cultural connection must be explicit in the project description.
The ABC Micro Grants Application requires applicants to describe their project, provide a brief resume, a short note from their department chair documenting their current status, and one from the host scholar expressing interest in holding conversations related to research. The initial deadline for review of proposals is February 1, 2014. If funds remain after the initial set of grants have been awarded, April 15, 2014 will be the second deadline.
The National Communication Association set aside similar funding for micro grants in 2012-13. Those projects have already been completed, and have been described in sufficient detail that they may serve as models for this year’s applications.

CALL FOR SUBMISSIONS FOR SPECIAL ISSUE ON RACE
JOURNAL OF INTERNATIONAL AND INTERCULTURAL COMMUNICATION
GUEST EDITORS: DREAMA G. MOON AND MICHELLE A. HOLLING,
CALIFORNIA STATE UNIVERSITY, SAN MARCOS
In 2001 in preparation for the first World Conference against racism, racial discrimination, xenophobia and related intolerance, planners noted that although the international community had made important advances in the fight against racism, racial discrimination, xenophobia and related intolerance including formation of national and international laws and adoption of a treaty to ban racial discrimination, the dream of a world free of racial hatred and bias remains fully unrealized. They further declared that:
“racism, racial discrimination, xenophobia and related intolerance, where they amount to racism and racial discrimination, constitute serious violations of and obstacles to the full enjoyment of all human rights and deny the self-evident truth that all human beings are born free and equal in dignity and rights, are an obstacle to friendly and peaceful relations among peoples and nations, and are among the root causes of many internal and international conflicts” (Durban Declaration).
Certainly systemic racism continues to haunt many societies around the world and as communication scholars, we believe that we are uniquely positioned to offer useful insights into the study of race, racial discrimination, nativism and xenophobia. For as Orbe and Allen (2008) note, communication plays a constitutive role in both perpetuating racism as well as opposing it.
For many in the United States, racism is a thing of the past. With the election of the U.S. first Black president, public discourse asserts that we are now in a post-racial moment where people are judged by the content of their character, not the color of their skin. However, cursory review of events of this year offers a different picture. In the United States, observed is that after Miss New York, Syracuse native Nina Davuluri won the Miss America crown, Twitter lit up with comments claiming that she is an Arab, a foreigner, and a terrorist with ties to Al Queda; voting restrictions passed in North Carolina; police shootings of Black men by the hundreds most of whom were unarmed; the acquittal of George Zimmerman; defamation of peoples of color by public figures such as Paula Deen; the increasing militarization of the US-Mexico border, and the continuing denial that racism is a problem. Around the globe we noted anti-Korean rallies in Japan, violent attacks on Chinese students in France, confrontations between youths of Moroccan and Moluccan descent in The Netherlands, segregation of beaches from Asian and African use in Lebanon, and banana- and racist epithet-throwing at Cécile Kyenge, Italy’s first Black minister. Despite these events, and others too numerous to recite, claims that we have entered a post-racial era abound.
Given the urgency of these matters, we seek submissions that investigate or examine issues of race, racism, nativism and xenophobia that aim to intervene in the post-racism rhetoric and show the variety of ways that race continues to matter both in the United States and abroad. Throughout this issue, we treat race as “one of the most powerful ideological and institutional factors for deciding how identities are categorized and power, material [and psychological] privileges, and resources distributed” (Giroux, 2003, p. 200). Thus, exploring the ways that race is deployed in social, political, legal or inter/national arenas, along with the communicative practices that maintain or contribute to manifestations of racism and xenophobia, has the potential to illuminate how race functions in a post-racism era. Broadly, we seek essays that advance extant studies about the ways race is communicated; attend to the micro- and/or macro-level aggressions that perpetuate racism; identify im/possibilities of racial(ized) subjects in a supposed post-racial society; reveal the machinations of xenophobia, domestically or internationally; examine the racialization of ethnic groups or communities; and/or critique instances of domination and resistance in an effort to encourage reconsideration of notions of human dignity or social justice. The contributions to be garnered from this special issue on race are to challenge the myth of post-racial societies, domestically or internationally, and to reaffirm the saliency of race within intercultural and international relations. Of interest are empirical manuscripts, including rhetorical analyses that work at the nexus of race and intercultural communication from a critical (broadly understood) perspective. Manuscripts from a range of interdisciplinary, theoretical or methodological perspectives are invited.
Submission information
Manuscripts are due by February 1, 2014. Manuscripts must be double-spaced throughout, prepared in accordance with APA 6th ed. and should not exceed 9000 words, inclusive of notes and reference matter. To facilitate the blind, peer review process, all identifying references to the author(s) should be removed. Manuscripts need to adhere to the instructions for authors for the Journal of International and Intercultural Communication and uploaded to ScholarOne Manuscripts. We ask that submitting author(s) indicate on the title page “for consideration in the special issue on race.” Direct inquiries regarding the special issue to both Dreama Moon and Michelle Holling.
Gonen Dori-Hacohen is a discourse analyst and a communication scholar at the University of Massachusetts Amherst, studying both interactions in the media and in mundane situations, focusing on the intersection of culture, politics, and the media.

Alex Frame is currently Associate Professor in Communication at the University of Burgundy (Dijon, France).
After a degree in Modern Languages from St Catherine’s College, Oxford, he permanently moved to France at postgraduate level and has been lecturing at university (in Business English, Intercultural Communication, New Media and Political Communication, among others) since the year 2000. He is a member of the “Text – Image – Language” Research Group (EA 4182). In his PhD (2008), he developed a symbolic interactionist approach to intercultural dialogue, taking into account the possible mobilisation of various cultures and identities in face-to-face interactions. He insists on the importance of the situation, the immediate context, existing relationships and underlying tensions in understanding the way people negotiate meanings and go about seeking to make sense of and for one another, despite cultural differences.
Alex’s current research interests stem from critical approaches to interculturality, factoring in questions of identities, othering and power relations to look at the ways in which cultural dynamics underpin and are referred to by individuals in their interactions. His main focus is on the cultural dynamics of communication processes both locally and globally, as they manifest themselves in intercultural dialogue, in mediated/mediatized communication and as part of the globalization process. In 2015, he set up an English-taught MA course in (critical approaches to) Intercultural Management at the University of Burgundy.

International Conference on Fourth World Literature and Culture
Venue: Government of Maharashtra’s Shiv Chhatrapati Sports Complex, Pune, India
Organizer: Higher Education and Research Society, Navi Mumbai, India
12th & 13th September 2014
International Conference on Fourth World Literature & Culture is organised by Higher Education and Research Society, a Navi Mumbai based Government Registered Educational Society. The conference renders a humble platform for deliberation upon the state policies and human endeavours to bridge the digital divide between the Fourth World and rest of the globe. It also problematizes the son-of-the-soil dynamics as one third of the ethnic civil wars could be labelled son-of-the-soil conflicts. The conference could rationalize reality of the ongoing marginalization of the Fourth World Nations by the imperial power under the banner of ‘modernization’, ‘progress’ and ‘development’. It intends to initiate the investigation that accounts for both the process of integration on global scale and the process of self-identification on the local indigenous level. The distinct literary representation of the indigenous people is quite rare. Rather, it becomes their appropriation in the fold of mainstream culture eliminating their uniqueness. The conference not only encourages but makes a strong plea for voicing the silenced ethnic marginal. The Mainstream writers’ literary representation of these ethnic minority groups often tends to be a romanticization, objectification or mere stereotyping. Hence there is an urgent need of a separate niche of the Fourth World Literature to be carved on the Literary Canon.
For any inquiry, please contact Dr. Sudhir Nikam (Organizing Secretary).
