[Rfu-barnraising] [Fwd: Fwd: ::fc-announce:: CFP - The Politics of Radio Organisation/s]

[Sascha Meinrath]

FYI:  might be a great opportunity to get ideas out to folks who wouldn't 
ordinarily be reading about LPFM.  I'm also happy to co-author and bring in both 
industrial/organizational literature and help with creating the "scholarly 
qualities" they'd be looking for, but I would need someone to take the lead on 
the project.

Let me know,

> The editors of Southern Review: Communication, Politics & Culture 
> invite papers to be submitted for an edition (vol. 39, no. 2) titled 
> "The politics of radio organisation/s". 
>
> Deadline for submission of articles is 17th March 2006. Preliminary

>
> THE CALL:
> This issue of Southern Review focuses on radio at a time when new 
> technical, organisational and political configurations of wireless 
> communication are being formed. Scholars and practitioners are 
> investigating new radio forms, and at the same time considering the 
> current role of radio in a variety of communities and polities. They 
> are also revisiting or continuing to build our knowledge of radio’s 
> historical formation and uses.
>
> We are interested in exploring the variety of ways in which radio 
> organisation, as well as particular radio organisations and their 
> broadcasters and audiences, are characterised by social relations of 
> power, knowledge, and pleasure. How are radio technologies, formats, 
> programming schedules and regulatory frameworks currently being 
> reshaped? What are their histories, in local, national and/or 
> international contexts? How are the audiences and communities of radio 
> reacting/responding to contemporary changes?
>
> For this issue we seek papers that describe the particularities and 
> contingencies of radio, which analyse its organisational form and its 
> ongoing implication in the formal and informal politics of a host of 
> institutions. These papers will contribute to the consolidation of 
> radio studies, in ways that will also inform our grasp of the ongoing 
> development of communication technologies more broadly. 
>
> PROCEDURE:
> 1. The deadline for submitted articles is 17th March 2006.  However we 
> suggest you send an abstract of your proposed paper, at the earliest 
> possible date, before proceeding to a full submission.

> Southern Review is a fully refereed interdisciplinary journal 
> published three times a year in hard copy format and online through 
> Informit Library by the School of Applied Communications at RMIT 
> University. Southern Review's focus on the connections between 
> communication and politics contributes to a distinctive and 
> under-served publishing space in the humanities and social sciences. 
> Established in 1963, Southern Review is interested in communication 
> and cultural technologies—their histories, producers and audiences, 
> policies and texts. It welcomes articles that connect these areas 
> either to arenas of legislative or parliamentary politics or to 
> broader negotiations of power.
