“Beyond Germany: German Media theory in a Global Context” is the title of the preconference I am preparing together with Andreas Ströhl (Goethe Institut, Washington DC) and Bernhard Debatin (Ohio University). This event is part of the programming of the 2019 ICA annual conference in Washington. Hosted by the Goethe Institut, it will focus on readings, critiques, and applications of German-language media theories beyond the boundaries of German-speaking Europe. Submissions (1000-word extended abstracts) are accepted until 31 January, 2019. Participation is free, please register via the ICA conference site.
