Political Communication in a Divided World

Polarisation, Populism and the Power of Group Representation APSA Pre-Conference in Political Communication.
Sept. 14, 2022

Contemporary politics has been defined by the salience of social identities, from polarized political identities to the mobilisation of marginalized groups in society making claims on the state for redress. How has the media framed these intergroup conflicts? How do people and movements communicate their claims? And when are they effective? In this pre-conference workshop, we welcome paper submissions that show how social and political conflicts are communicated – between people, by movements and in the larger media environment. We are particularly interested in papers that focus on 1) how specific group claims are formulated, transformed and/or disseminated and 2) how people interpret information about groups and group conflicts in contemporary societies.

The pre-conference is free to attend! It will be held near the main APSA conference on the campus of the Université du Québec à Montréal in the Cœur de Science building (175, avenue du Président-Kennedy, Montréal H2X3P2.)
