'Civil Rights in Mediatized Societies: Which data privacy against whom and how?' is the title of an IAMCR pre-conference to be held 19 & 20 July 2008 at the University of Stockholm, Sweden.
More and more institutions have begun to collect all the data they can get â in whatever way: the government, the police, the industry, enterprises, the health and the security system, banks, political parties, retail shop chains, the media themselves. It is not new that they do this.

Deliberation, the Media and Political Talk
Rousiley C. Maia
New book by IAMCR member
In recent years democratic theory has taken a deliberative turn and one central question that needs to be answered is how to connect face-to-face conversations and deliberations in particular forums to broader discussions in the larger society. Working within the cutting edges of deliberative theories, this book surveys the role of the mass media in the deliberative system and investigates, through a set of empirical cases, a range of key problems in the media arena: the interplay between arguing and strategic maneuvering; public demands for accountability; emotional appeal for deliberation; tensions between agonistic and diplomatic deliberation; and the public construction of general claims.
