The deadline for submission is approaching â May 31st.

The conference will provide opportunities for presenting ideas in the field of the critical study of media, communication & society, for networking, and for meeting people working in this research area. It will feature the keynote talk âWhy a Sociologist should take Communications and Media Seriouslyâ by Peter Golding, who is not only a leading scholar in the political economy of media and communication, but also founded RN18 and is its honorary chair. The conference will take place in Bilbao, which is a great city to visit in autumn.

Membership in the ESA and RN18 provides reduced participation fees both for the bi-annual ESA conference and the bi-annual RN18 conference and furthermore gives you access to a great community of scholars interested in critical studies of media, communication & society.
