Strategy and Influence: Movements, Media, and Parties
San Diego State University
July 8-9, 2024
Call for Papers
Plenary sessions will explore the latest research on media dimensions of protest and party-movement synergies. We welcome research presentations by colleagues from Western Europe, Eastern Europe, Asia, South America, and elsewhere. Open sessions will cover a wide range of topics in our field and will be organized thematically depending on submissions. To reserve your place, submit an abstract and formally register by the deadline, and commit to a completed paper by the conference. We encourage you to stay at conference housing. Our vision is an informal and friendly space for researchers in the social movements/contentious politics field to gather annually and discuss their work—at a more relaxed and intimate venue compared to ASA, ISA, or ESA conferences.
