The ICA 2022 conference theme One World, One Network‽ invites reimagining communication scholarship on globalization and networks. The use of the interrobang glyph - a superposition of the exclamation and question punctuation marks - seeks to simultaneously celebrate and problematize the “one-ness” in the theme.
Arguably nothing celebrates the “one-ness” of the world more than our existential commitment to the sustainability of our planet. Indeed, the blue marble photograph of Earth taken by the crew of Apollo 17 in 1972 is one of the most reproduced images in history. In other areas, “One World” remains a contested slogan. Marshall McLuhan invoked visions of a “global village” in the 1960s. A 1980 UNESCO report titled “Many Voices, One World” introduced the phrase “New World Information and Communication Order” to recommend changes to address inequities in global media representations. The proliferation of the Internet, social media, and mobile technologies since the turn of the 21st century has generated a robust debate on the promises and perils of globalization.
THE ICA CONFERENCE THEME
The theme invites research, reflection, and critique of the “One World, One Network? ” discourse in communication studies on questions including (but not limited to) the following:
1. How do we theorize and model interdependent networks nested at many levels (from brain cells to societies) to better understand and enable how communicative processes and structures shape our world?
2. How do global networks organize and mobilize socio-political contestations online and offline? How can networks of resistance, solidarity, and counter-power through regional formations both beyond and beneath the nation-state shape “Another World”?
3. How are advances in artificial intelligence, robotization, the Internet of Things, genetic engineering, and neuroscience, among others, contributing to the future trajectories of algorithmically infused societies and networks, at work and play, around the world?
4. How are media systems – old and new - nurturing networks of “intimate publics” and “counter publics” among communities around the globe?
5. How and why do some networks infiltrate mainstream media systems with disinformation, propaganda, and hate while other networks find themselves ignored, censored, or targeted?
6. How are networks contributing to images of the Global South produced and consumed in the Global North - and vice versa? How do these asymmetries shape inequities in our responses to global challenges such as pandemics and sustainable development?
7. How can networks change the lived experiences – training, mentoring, publishing, co-authoring, and recruiting - of under-represented scholars around the world in the field of communication? How do we square the circle of “oneness” while promoting visibility of minoritized positions? What must we do to decolonize communication scholarship and address methodological imperialism? How do we expand the notion of “One World” to also signal, inclusively, “All Our World(s)”?

GENERAL PROPOSALS
As always: Papers, posters, panels, Blue Sky workshops, and pre-conference and post-conference workshops that apply to general communication topics not having to do with the conference theme are also welcome. These are organized within the 33 ICA divisions and interest groups’ calls for papers, the submission guidelines for which will be enumerated on the ICA website in August.
All panel submissions (general and theme) should include contributions from at least two different countries; not more than one contributor from a single faculty, department or school; and generally, must actively seek panelist diversity. Paper and panel submissions that involve direct collaboration with community partners, both in work and in authorship, are encouraged.
NEW: Non-Conference Theme Inter-Divisional/Interest Groups Panels. In addition, proposals are invited for panels that address significant issues across divisions/interest groups that are not directly related to the conference theme. Proposals must provide a 400-word rationale for the intellectual and/or societal significance of the panel, a 100-word rationale articulating how the panel intellectually engages with multiple divisions/interest groups, plus a separate 150-word summary of the rationale to appear in the conference program. Inter-divisional non-conference theme panels will NOT count toward the slots allocated for each Division/Interest Group.
To summarize, the 2022 ICA Call for Papers invites multi-lingual contributions to:
1. Conference Theme ICA-wide individual submissions
2. Conference Theme ICA-wide Panel Submissions
3. Conference Theme ICA-wide Digital Artifacts
4. Conference Theme ICA-wide pre- and post-Conference workshops
5. Non-Conference Theme ICA-Wide Inter-Divisional/IG panels
6. Non-Conference Theme Division/IG individual, panel and pre-/post conference workshop submissions
7. Sponsored Panels, and (viii) Blue Sky sessions.
NEW: ICA 2022 Conference Theme Podcast miniseries. Stay tuned for an ICA conference theme podcast miniseries, where the first episode features a discussion among the six conference-theme co-chairs and each of the remaining six episodes is hosted by one of the conference-theme co-chairs.
