This postconference welcomed scholars from all fields and disciplines build the field of media sociology writ large on any foci, theoretical orientation, and/or methodological practice. Contributing to ICA’s theme “One World, One Network,” the post-conference provides a global tent for the emergent interdisciplinary field of media sociology at the intersection of communication, media, technology, digital inequalities, and social changes. Submissions are invited from voices and practitioners from around the world, particularly traditionally underrepresented groups from whom we can learn much about inequalities in increasingly networked and digitized societies. This postconference leverages ICA’s conference in Paris to showcase featured speakers Paola Tubaro (CNRS) and Antonio A. Casilli (Télécom Paris) from the internationally renowned CNRS, le Centre national de la recherche scientifique, which is one of France’s premier institutions. In addition to showcasing French intellectual leadership appropriate to the ICA venue, organizers come from South America, North America, Europe, and the UK, thus ensuring global standpoints. The event’s ICA affiliate is the Computational Methods Divisions (submissions welcome from all methodological and theoretical orientations).
