Stockholm University and the Dept of Journalism, Media and Communication has the privilege to host the 26th world congress of the International Association for Media and Communication Research (IAMCR) to be held in Stockholm, Sweden July 20-25 2008. The conference will take place on the campus of Stockholm University.
This is the first time during the organisation’s 50-year history that the conference is organised in a Nordic country and it is supported by the Nordic research community.
The initiative for this conference has been taken by the Swedish Association for Media and Communication Research (FSMK), an active organisation with broad interests among media scholars. The actual organisation of the conference has also been conceived as a close cooperative effort including representatives from Swedish and Nordic colleges and universities and Nordicom, the longstanding organisation for information on Nordic media and communication research. Among others Stockholm University’s Vice-Chancellor has expressed clear support.
