Conference

The 20th century marked many new approaches to linguistic enquiry, including an interest in the interplay between multiple resources to construe meaning, as well as a focus on the social dimension of language and the way language is informed by specific social, cultural and institutional contexts. The interplay between linguistic and non-linguistic resources, and particularly the visual medium, have been the subject of a number of semiotic and multimodal theories.

Having established a solid reputation in research into journalism theory and journalism practice, the Brussels Institute for Journalism Studies (BIJU) is proud to launch its fifth call for papers for a new international conference. The topic for this year will be voices and sources in the news. As always, our conference is multidisciplinary.

Dear colleagues,

We're happy to invite you to the 6th edition of the International Conference “Media and Governance in Latin America”.

This year, the focus is on "Media and Governance in Latin America, Spain, and Portugal: The struggle for quality journalism in times of precariousness and information disorder".
