Preparation for our seventh Mapping the Magazine conference is underway and will run the new dates of July 27 – 28, 2022, hosted by Drake University in Des Moines, Iowa.
In preparation, we are now calling for abstracts on this year’s theme, Magazines and the Moment. Authors – practitioners and academics – are invited to submit their proposals for original work on topics around the 2022 theme, including:
- Emerging trends and steadfast practices
- Digital developments
- Magazine history
- Readership
- Business models
- Magazines as a lens
- Magazines and movements
Papers dealing with other topics and themes are equally welcome, and organizers encourage a multidisciplinary approach, as well as theoretical and/or empirical perspectives.
Abstracts of 400 words for 20-minute papers must be submitted by February 28th, 2022. For a more in-depth guide to the topics and submission details, visit: http://mappingthemagazine.ulusofona.pt/submitting/
