Divergences and Convergences: Mediated Communication, Community, and Social

<p class=MsoPlainText><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif"'>Through
social networking, commerce, or political activism, many internet users engage
in a host of mediated communities and social networks. To date, little
attention has been paid to how cultural context shapes differentiated use of IT
both within and beyond national borders. This session takes on this challenge
by examining how new media practices diverge or converge in different cultural
settings both in the United States and internationally. Papers will explore
differences and similarities between how different cultural groups use mediated
communication to initiate, sustain, or strengthen different forms of community
and/or social networks.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto'><b>HOW
TO SUBMIT:</b> All submissions must be made via the ASA online system.
Organizers cannot consider papers sent to them directly. Only completed papers,
not abstracts or letters of intent, may be considered by session organizers. Details
on the submission process and participation policies can be found at: <a
href="http://www.asanet.org/cs/root/leftnav/meetings/2009_call_for_papers">http://www.asanet.org/cs/root/leftnav/meetings/2009_call_for_papers</a><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto'><b>IMPORTANT
REMINDER:</b> If you select one of the above sessions as your 1<sup>st</sup> or
2<sup>nd</sup> preference (as part of the ASA online submission process), in
the event that your paper is not accepted for a CITASA session, organizers will
do their best to forward your paper to additional sessions for consideration.
However, you are also strongly urged to select the box to have your paper
forwarded to a Roundtable Session.<o:p></o:p></p>
