The Carsey-Wolf Center’s Media Industries Project [MIP] announces a call for participants in the Dirty, Sexy Policy Conference at UC Santa Barbara.
The goal of the joint conference is to promote both theoretical and
applied research in pragmatics, and bring together scholars who are
interested in different subfields of pragmatics (philosophical,
linguistic, cognitive, social, intercultural, interlanguage, etc.).
Three main topics of the conference are as follows:
Conference Panels:
• The Embodied Discourses: Discursive Positioning in Narrations
• Materialities and Boundaries of Discourse
• Counter-Discourses and Cooptation
• Governmentality and Poverty: On the Intricate Relation between Discourses on Economics, Identities, and the Government of the Self
