*Call for papers – special edition of the Journal of Social Sciences on
“The Politics of New Media Practices” – NEW EXTENDED DEADLINE*

We are currently seeking contributions for a forthcoming Special Issue
entitled “The Politics of New Media Practices,” which will be published in
the Journal of Social Sciences. In an expanding media verse that is
increasingly intertwined with the world of politics, we are seeking to
explore the ramifications and broader impacts of new media practices in the
political realm, while the existence and operation of a broad range of
social media outlets has, itself, become highly politicized in recent years.

We welcome theoretical, empirical, or professional contributions of the
highest standard on any of the following topics: polarization; hate speech;
fake news; populism; sensationalism and clickbait; activism and new media
practices; moderation policies and free speech issues; algorithms policy
making approaches (such as net neutrality and regulation of social media).

Ph.D. candidates with original empirical research are also strongly
encouraged to submit an abstract.

*The submission deadline has been extended to August 31, 2022.*
