Emerging Scholars Network
Emerging Scholars Network Mentorship Program
Are you interested in mentoring emerging scholars within IAMCR?
Do you have 30 minutes to spare at IAMCR conferences? Could you respond to a handful of emails throughout the year?
Mentoring is a great way to help out emerging scholars and to continue the international connections so valuable to IAMCR and to our academic community.
Mentorship involves:
- Meeting with your mentee at IAMCR conferences,
- Communicating periodically during the year, and
- Providing advice and feedback on conference, publication, and research plans.
To become a mentor, please send a CV/bio to Sara Bannerman at Sara.Bannerman[AT]gmail.com and Stefania Milan at Stefania.Milan[AT]eui.eu.
For more information, please see the program flyer . Matches will be announced by March 15 2010.
Thank you for your support of the mentorship program,

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.
