I have put together an Excel file that lists every paper I could find related to communications, IT, and media that is scheduled to be presented at the ASA meeting in Boston. I followed the same procedure as last year, I searched the online program on every comm, IT, and media related term I could think of, when I found a session with a relevant paper, I also looked at the other papers in the same session for relevant works. The list is broad, but inclusive of everything CITASA represents. Last year's list contained 106 papers. There are 167 papers on this year's list. A 57% increase! If you would like a copy of the spreadsheet, you can find it here: http://www.mysocialnetwork.net/downloads/CITASAofInterest2008r1.xls Either we are experiencing a revival of sociology of communication, increased interest in sociology of IT, greater acceptance of both (e.g., gender and work sections do not exclude Internet related work), or those who work in this are truly prolific. However, it is worth noting that CITASA was only allocated room in its sessions for 12 papers (we squeezed in 13), and we made room for 23 papers in the roundtables by accepting reduced time for the business meeting. Over 80 papers were submitted to the section sessions as 1st or 2nd choices! It was regrettable we could not accommodate many more of the very strong papers that were submitted (I sent all papers to other sessions for consideration - so many more were accepted). Any ASA member can submit a proposal for a special or thematic session, the call is usually 18+ months in advance of the meeting, look for the 2010 call and do your part for the collective cause. Btw. I apologize to those who submitted papers to CITASA and did not receive an email from me about your paper. Given the volume of papers to be reviewed, I could not provide detailed feedback. However, the ASA paper submission system was supposed to send an email to everyone, I have been told that not all emails were sent from the system - I will bring this up with the ASA. -Keith
