Communication Association of Eurasian Researchers (CAER)
CALL FOR SUBMISSIONS ON COMMUNICATION THEORY AND PRACTICE IN EASTERN
EUROPE, CENTRAL-EASTERN EUROPE, RUSSIA, CIS and FORMER SOVIET REPUBLICS of
CENTRAL ASIA and CAUCASUS
November 17-20, 2022, New Orleans, Louisiana

The Communication Association of Eurasian Researchers (CAER) welcomes
submissions that focus on various aspects of communication in, with, and
about Eastern Europe, Central Asia, Russia, CIS and Former Soviet
Republics; or submissions that use theoretical perspectives that have
originated in this region. While any work will be considered, work that
engages the official theme for the NCA 108th Annual Convention, “Honoring
Place; People, Liberation, Advocacy, Community, and Environment,” 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 via https://www.natcom.org.

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 welcome diversity and strongly encourage inclusion
of underrepresented global and local perspectives, samples, and
participants.

We accept submissions in three formats: individual papers, extended
abstracts, 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. Furthermore,
please be familiar with NCA Professional Standards for Convention
Participants
https://www.natcom.org/sites/default/files/NCA_Convention_Resources_Convention_Standards.pdf

*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).

*Extended Abstract: *You may submit an extended abstract that reflects on a
study that is not fully completed yet, but will be completed one month
prior to the time of convention. Extended abstracts should be at least 1000
words long (this word count is for the main text excluding references,
tables, or other additional materials) and include clear description of
theoretical and methodological approach of the study. Extended abstracts
are submitted as individual papers – but should be clearly labeled as
“extended abstract”.

*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.
