Subject: Call for Conference Proposals on Communication Theory and Practice
in Eastern Europe, Russia, CIS and Former Soviet Republics (from the
National Communication Association (NCA)); Deadline -- Wednesday, March 31,
11:59 p.m. Pacific

Dear Colleagues:

The Communication Association of Eurasian Researchers (CAER) welcomes
conference proposals that focus on various aspects of communication in,
with, and about Eastern Europe, Russia, CIS and Former Soviet Republics.
While any work will be considered, work that engages the official theme for
the NCA 107th Annual Convention, " Renewal and Transformation” (November
18-21, 2021, Seattle, Washington), in the context of our regional focus
upon Eastern Europe, Russia, and Central Asia and/or reflecting on
communication and its historical challenges in these regions will receive
special consideration. Please read more about this year’s theme at the NCA
Convention website: www.natcom.org/convention
<https://urldefense.com/v3/__http:/www.natcom.org/convention__;!!F8lEXw!rvxqhAi_BZlxzvZPg-YB69qcydXULDHLLpxXD93FwSm4fg8V_MKRX5YC_8Cu3SIv$>
.

We welcome any methodological approaches and theoretical perspectives that
may advance our understanding of communication discipline, including papers
about communicative or rhetorical behavior, social interaction, theoretical
contributions, any form of mediated or face-to-face form of communication
or interaction between people from the above-listed countries and cultures.
However, submissions should not be limited to these areas as long as they
are related to the above-mentioned regions in some way. In addition to the
traditional types of submissions, we encourage innovative methods that may
not use traditional presentational formats or require the literal presence
of such participants. We also encourage paper sessions and panel discussion
submissions that include presenters from multiple institutions and/or
multiple countries.

We accept submissions in three formats: individual papers, paper sessions
and panel discussion proposals. All submissions must be written in English
and must be submitted via NCA Convention Central. Emailed or mailed
submissions will not be accepted.

Individual Paper: An individual paper is a fully-developed, complete paper.
Extended abstracts should contain sufficient information for review;
although abstracts will be considered, priority will be given to full
papers. You should not submit a paper that has been published or accepted
for publication at the time of submission. Selected paper submissions may
be sent to the Scholar to Scholar sessions, which provide a format
especially appropriate for visual and aural work, multimedia projects, and
interactive presentations. If you wish your paper to be considered for the
Scholar to Scholar sessions, please check the appropriate agreement box
during the submission process. Authors will enter their submission
information to include title, author(s), paper description (for the
convention program), and uploaded abstract or completed paper file.  Please
note that you must remove ALL identifying information from your uploaded
paper file prior to submission. Uploaded files should not exceed 25 pages
of primary text, excluding abstract, title page and works cited page(s).

Paper Session: A paper session is submitted as a pre-conceived and complete
session of papers centered around a common subject, theme, concept, or
idea. All paper session proposals must include an overall description of
the session, a paper session rationale, the title of each proposed paper,
author(s) name and contact information, and an abstract for each paper. A
session chair is required.

Panel Discussion: A panel discussion is submitted as a pre-conceived and
complete session of presenters discussing a topic/issue. All panel
discussion submissions must include the entry of each presenter involved,
title, and session description for the online program. A session chair is
required. Please provide a rationale for acceptance outlining the
importance of the submission.

We will recognize the top student paper submission. We will also recognize
the best overall paper.

If you are not a member of NCA, you will be able to create a user name and
password for NCA Convention Central by using the "Create an Account" link
on the main sign-in page of NCA Convention Central. The best student and
faculty submissions will be recognized and top papers will be considered
for publication in the RCA-sponsored Russian Journal of Communication.

We expect a high number of papers and panel proposals. If you're willing to
join our team of reviewers, please email planners marta.lukacovic at furman.edu
or matveevan at uhd.edu and provide details about your area of expertise.

All submitters are encouraged to review the Professional Standards for
Convention Participants prior to submission. Helpful resources (including
the Professional Standards for Convention Participants), such as live and
recorded step-by-step instructions on how to submit, are available in the
NCA Convention Library (www.natcom.org/conventionresources
<https://urldefense.com/v3/__http:/www.natcom.org/conventionresources__;!!F8lEXw!rvxqhAi_BZlxzvZPg-YB69qcydXULDHLLpxXD93FwSm4fg8V_MKRX5YC_w4EwnJo$>
).
