CALL FOR PAPERS
Conference “The international perspective on a radio centenary”
7-8 November 2019
Seeking co-panelists and a chair/commentator for AHA 2020 in New York City. The panel explores the intersection between two emerging fields: periodical studies and global social history. Specifically, it focuses on the global emergence of the middle classes in the long nineteenth century and the newspapers, journals, and magazines that were created for this expanding audience.

The government of India declared a national emergency citing internal instability in June 1975. By June 26th, the day after emergency had been declared, media outlets in the country had received instructions on news that must be censored. Some newspapers ran blank editorials as protests. In the eighteen months that followed, the press censorship rules remained in effect and additional forms of pressure were exerted on the media.
I'm seeking co-panelists for the 2020 AHA in New York City. My research focuses on American women who wrote for the Left and Communist press during the Cold War, particularly the Federated Press. I'm interested in creating a panel that raises and grapples with questions surrounding leftist journalistic practices during the Cold War, and how gender and journalism intersected with the movements of the mid-century Left, particularly feminist movements.
