Bogudgivelse: Bogen Kids Online. Opportunities and risks for children, redigeret af Sonia Livingstone og Leslie Haddon, London School of Economics, kan nu købes.

Bogen præsenterer i en række artikler skrevet at projektets deltagere resultater fra det europæiske forskningssamarbejde EU Kids Online. Det 3årige projekt sluttede i juni 2009 og straks derefter startede EU Kids Online II. I dette projekt skal der gennemføres ensartede undersøgelser af børns brug af online medier i 28 europæiske lande.

Yderligere information om projekterne fås ved henvendelse til Gitte Stald: stald@itu.dk

Seminaret med Dan Burk på IT Universitetet 30.9.2009 er aflyst, da Dan Burk har fået H1N1. Vi håber at kunne afholde arrangementet i foråret i stedet.

Ny deadline for indsendelse af artikler: Fredag den 18. december 2009
Vi indbyder hermed artikler om mediesociologi til et temanummer af Dansk Sociologi, planlagt til at udkomme i foråret 2010. Artiklerne kan omhandle alt fra journalistiske nyhedsmedier til sociale netværksmedier, men skal være funderet i sociologisk teori og metode. Temanummeret vil lægge vægt på klassiske mediesociologiske spørgsmål:

• Hvad er mediernes sociale rolle?
• Hvordan bruges medier og hvordan undersøges de?
• Hvad er mediesociologiens rolle i det 21. århundrede?
• Holder de gamle teorier og hvad er bud på nye?

Artikler der skønnes egnet til temanummeret vil blive reviewet af to anonyme bedømmere. Forslag til essays, kronikker og kommentarer er også velkomne. Manuskripter skal følge retningslinjerne for manuskripter til Dansk Sociologi.
Spørgsmål eller uddybning fås hos redaktørerne: Ida Willig idaw@ruc.dk eller Rasmus Antoft ras@socsci.aau.dk.

To be held in Aalborg, Denmark, 3rd & 4th May 2010
