Borders & Breakthroughs

The Intercultural Communication Interest Group invites the submission of competitive papers, panels, roundtable discussions, and innovative programming for the 2020 CSCA convention in Chicago-O’Hare, Illinois. The purpose of the Intercultural Communication Interest Group is to promote the interests of faculty and students, as well as others, interested in examining intercultural communication research, theory, and pedagogy.

A range of topics encompassing the significance of borders and breakthroughs between and among diverse U.S. and international constituencies, communities, and scholars and students, as well as borders and breakthroughs in intercultural pedagogy, mentorship, social justice, conflict, peace, and globalization are welcome. We especially encourage members to address issues highlighting borders and breakthroughs in highly contested political climates locally and globally, as well as offer best teaching practices, and propose new directions in intercultural communication scholarship. We welcome a variety of research, including interpretive, critical, and social scientific approaches, as well as papers that apply, extend or develop theoretical approaches. Preference will be given to panels whose presenters represent multiple institutions rather than a single institution.

Awards: The Intercultural Communication Interest Group presents two awards with cash prizes: 1) top paper award and 2) top student paper award. The awards for top paper and top student paper will be recognized during the Intercultural Communication Interest Group Business Meeting.
