Subject: Panel Proposal by Eleonora Esposito and Majid KoshraviNik:
(Counter-)Discourses of Politics and Identity in the Digital Agorá (message
from DiscourseNet)
To: Carla Nunes Vieira Tavares <carla@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
*Panel Proposal by Eleonora Esposito and Majid KoshraviNik:
(Counter-)Discourses of Politics and Identity in the Digital Agorá*
Eleonora Esposito and Majid KoshraviNik invite submission of abstracts for a
panel entitled /(Counter-)Discourses in the Digital Agorà/, to be proposed
as part of the 3rd *MAPD (Multidisciplinary Approaches to Political
Discourse)* Conference, to be held on *25-26 June 2020 *at
the *University of Liverpool, UK*.
In ancient Greece, the /agorá/ was the central public space at the heart
of city-states, hosting a wide range of face-to-face social interactions
from
daily market transactions to political debates and scientific brainstorming.
Digital technologies have given rise to a host of new ways for people to
communicate, manage social relationships and getting things done. We are
witnessing myriads of interdependent, contextualised digital communities
evolving in a scenario of constant connectivity, which challenge how we
perceive aspects of our identity and life-worlds and most importantly,
contributing to a growing digital materialisation of the /agorá./
This panel focuses on the role of social media as a virtual/ agorá/ for
the production, distribution and consumption of political discourses. New
mediation technologies have afforded both a new interactive mode of
communication, i.e. Social Media Communication (SMC), as well as providing
the digitally enforced geographies of spaces that serve as interfaces for
public debates, elections and broader political life.
Two contemporary political and digital phenomena are of particular relevance
in the context of the panel. On the one hand, the panel pays particular
attention to the digital mediatization of discourses of authoritarianism,
nativism/nationalism, sovereignism, populism and far-right movements, and
the
impact they have on the political debate, especially in the Euro-American
zone. On the other hand, focusing on the contemporary digital /agorá/ in
its entire multivocality, the panel explores the use of social media
platforms and their new semiotic affordances as sites and means of protest,
resistance and subversion of hegemonic discourse.
We aim to bring together scholars from a variety of discursive and political
approaches to critically examine the challenges we face in such a volatile
digital landscape and the theoretical and analytical responses we can
provide. Possible topics include, but are by no means limited to, the
following aspects:*/ /*
*/Digital Politics/*
* Political Communication & Digital Discourse
* The Role of Digital Media in Global Elections
* Digital Discourses of Authoritarianism / Sovereignism, Alt-Right and
Populism
* Free Speech, Hate Speech and Online Politics
* Alternative Facts / Fake News
* (International) Conflicts, Extremism & Terrorism
* Regulation and Data Misuse of Online Political Spaces
*/Political Activism in the Digital Era/*
Political Activism in Electoral Processes
Social Movements and Digital Collective Action
Strategies, Resources and Organization in Digital Activism
Digital Culture and Discourses of Cyber-Activism
Languages and Identities in Digital Activism
Research Methods for Studying Discourses of Social and Political Activism
Online
