[SSJ: 6762] looking for participants for a panel, AAS in Toronto

From: Shunichi Takekawa
Date: 2011/07/22

Dear SSJ-Forum subscribers,

My colleague and I are looking for participants, including presenters and a discussant, for the panel that we try to form for AAS Conference in Toronto 2012.

Please see the description below. Feel free to email me if you are interested in it.

------------

"Media, Nuclear Power, and Disasters" CALL FOR PARTICIPANTS Fukushima has brought renewed attention to the issue of nuclear power and disasters as well as the media representations. This panel tackles issues of media representation and issues of nuclear power and disasters through an interdisciplinary approach. We seek additional panelists and a discussant for AAS meeting. The current papers proposed involve an analysis of global media frames of the Fukushima incident and an analysis of articles regarding Japanese adoption of nuclear power within a strong anti-nuclear normative environment. We are seeking papers from any relevant discipline, most likely from environmental, media, or global studies/governance perspectives.

Thank you,

Shunichi Takekawa
