Call for Papers: 

We are pleased to announce that we are now accepting abstracts for the virtual
Discourse and Politics Seminar Series.

We invite abstracts from a variety of disciplines for 15-minute papers on the
way that language (mis)informs our understanding of the political landscape.
Topics could include but are not limited to:
 - Brexit and nationalism
 - Health and wellbeing
 - Protests and social movements
 - Immigration

If your research falls outside of the themes listed above but meets the
criteria of work on language and political (mis)information, please outline
the broader theme of your paper in your application.

Please send abstracts (maximum 300 words, excluding references) to
discourseandpolitics at gmail.com by 25 November 2020. 

Please include your discipline and indicate which topic you will address in
your presentation.
