Subject: [grc] Call for Papers on Community Radio.
Westminster Papers in Communication and Culture
Call for Papers
Volume 5, Number 1, March 2008
Community Radio.
Networks, identities and experiences.
The growing interest in community media research and practice in the last
decade
has been reflected by the increase in academic publications and in the
number
of broadcasting stations. Both scholars and practitioners have emphasized
the
role of community broadcasting as either an alternative or complementary
sector
to public and commercial stations and as a tool for enacting citizenship on
a
daily basis, Œgiving voice to the voiceless‚, empowering marginalised
groups
and regenerating communities.
At the same time, technological changes in production processes, a wider
availability of affordable digital technologies and a growing use of
internet
as a platform for broadcasting, have permitted an exponential increase in
the
numbers of web-based broadcasters, communicative tools for communities of
interest and the exchange of content among radio stations across the world,
often linking local issues to wider global social and political concerns.
Nevertheless, the influence of mainstream broadcasters on media
policymaking and
regulation, coupled with the organisational challenges often faced by
community
groups and their representative bodies, have often resulted in legislation
that
still limits the communicative potential of community radio and its
contribution to social change, access, participation and representation in
the
media.
WPCC is looking for original, research-based papers that will contribute to
broaden the theoretical and empirical perspectives in community radio from
a
range of disciplinary approaches. Approaches in Media, Communication and
Cultural Studies, as well as in the wider fields of the humanities, social
and
applied sciences.
WPCC welcomes analyses of local, regional and national case studies, and
international comparative research, as well as contributions on
policy-making
and regulation for community radio.
Possible topics include, but are not limited to:
- Media Theory, Radio Theory and Community Radio;
- Community Radio as a tool for encouraging democratic participation and
activism and access to local public spheres.
- Community Radio as a tool for development and social change; for
promoting and
preserving local identities and local cultures; giving voice to ethnic
minorities, diasporic groups and refugees; and regenerating communities;
- International/National Policy and Regulation of Community Radio;
- Community Radio organization, decisional processes and democratic
structures;
- Audience and reception studies;
- Transnational networks, infrastructures and institutions developing
community
radio practices
- Community radio and media literacy
- University, College, School and Student Radio
Applicants may submit abstracts of no more than 200 words to the Issue‚s
Editor

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Westminster Papers in Communication and Culture (WPCC) is a peer-reviewed
journal, published four times a year in hard copy and PDF format.
WPCC recognises the interdisciplinary nature of the field of Media and
Cultural
Studies, and therefore deliberately encourages diverse methods, contexts
and
themes.
Particular interests include, but are not limited to, work related to
Popular
Culture, Media Audiences, Political Economy, Promotional Culture, New
Media,
Political communication, Migration and Diasporic Studies.
A major goal of the WPCC is to help develop a de-westernised and
transcultural
sphere that engages both young and established scholars from different
parts of
the world in a critical debate about the relationship between
communication,
culture and society in the 21st Century.
WPCC invites contributions from all scholars; particularly those at the
beginning of their careers.
Editor: Dr Anthony McNicholas
