AMERICAN JOURNALISM HISTORIANS ASSOCIATION
2017 CALL FOR PAPERS, PANELS, AND RESEARCH IN PROGRESS

 

The American Journalism Historians Association invites paper entries, panel proposals, and abstracts of research in progress on any facet of media history for its 36th annual convention to be held October 12-14, 2017, in Little Rock, Arkansas. More information on the 2017 AJHA convention is available at ajhaonline.org.

 

The deadline for all submissions is June 1, 2017. Accepted papers are eligible for several awards. Authors will be notified in mid-July whether their papers have been accepted.

 

The AJHA views journalism history broadly, embracing print, broadcasting, advertising, public relations, and other forms of mass communication that have been inextricably intertwined with the human past. Because the AJHA requires presentation of original material, research papers and panels submitted to the convention should not have been submitted to or accepted by another convention or publication.

 

Submission guidelines for research papers, panels, and research in progress are available at https://ajha.wildapricot.org/2017call. 

 

Questions about the research paper competition may be directed to Research Chair Michael Fuhlhage (michael.fuhlhage@wayne.edu) of Wayne State University. 

 

Questions about panels: Tracy Lucht (tlucht@iastate.edu) of Iowa State University.

 

Questions about research in progress: Melita Garza (melita.garza@tcu.edu) of Texas Christian University.
