Call for Papers “Best papers of comparative journalism research”

two sessions at the International Conference “Comparing Journalism: Theory, Methodology, Findings” Eichstنtt (Bavaria), Germany, July, 9--‐11, 2010 In an interconnected world, where communication networks build links between individuals, groups, organizations, and societies on a global scale, journalism has to redefine itself in order to remain relevant for its audiences.
It has to react to a phenomenon that has not been fully understood yet: ‘lobalization’ Accordingly, recent journalism research has developed an increased interest in the international and transnational side of journalism,
as well as cultural aspects transgressing the limiting boundaries of the nation state.

Extended abstracts of max. 6000 characters should be submitted to Thorsten Quandt
thorsten.quandt@uni--‐hohenheim
until 01/31/2010.
