Meeting Description:

This is the Semiotic Society of America's 45th Annual Meeting. The theme for
this year’s conference is ''Addressing Precarity: Semiotics, Semiosis, and
Semioethics.'' The conference centers on considering precarity through the
framework of semiotics.

Call for Papers: 

The theme for this year’s conference is Addressing Precarity: Semiotics,
Semiosis, and Semioethics. Presenters are encouraged to develop panels and
submissions that consider semiosis, semioethics, and precarity. As always, we
welcome abstracts on any subject with a connection to semiotics (both
theoretical and applied), not solely those inspired by this year’s theme.

The Society is interdisciplinary and international, welcoming voices of
colleagues from all disciplines and countries.

This year the Conference will be virtual, and all presentations and panels
will take place online as webinars/forums/Q&A style.

Please include the following information in your submission:
1. Author’s name
2. Institutional affiliation and academic status
3. Email address
4. Title of submission with a maximum 150-word abstract in English
5. A maximum of six keywords

Paper presentations will be 20-25 minutes pre-recorded video with time for Q&A
in the session. Abstracts for individual paper-presentations or panels and
organized sessions (3-4 papers) must include all of the above information.
There will be a poster online exposition (Format forthcoming).

Please indicate in your abstract submission if you plan to present in a
language other than English. An acknowledgment of receipt of your abstract
will be sent to you within two weeks from the date of submission. Electronic
letters of acceptance will be sent to the selected participants starting May
10, 2021 and will continue until July 30, 2021.

a year lapse for publication in Semiotics 2021, the Yearbook of the Semiotic
Society of America. The SSA Yearbook is an annual peer-reviewed publication
series sponsored by the Semiotic Society of America, providing both a timely
overview of current developments in semiotic research and a regular outlet for
members of the Society to publish papers on their current work. Further
details and deadlines will be specified in the Annual Conference Program.

honor the best student paper presented at the 2020 Annual Conference. Students
who wish to be considered for the Kevelson Award should indicate their
interest at the time of abstract submission. Full paper submissions must be
uploaded to the program committee by September 20, 2021. Questions regarding
the Roberta Kevelson Award should be directed to the Review Committee Chair
André De Tienne at adetienn at iupui.edu
