Call for Papers
Interpersonal Communication and Social Interaction

Special Issue of Empedocles, guest edited by Pekka Isotalus
(University of Tampere) and Owen Hargie (University of Ulster).

There is growing need for a European publication platform for interpersonal communication and social interaction research and theory development. In order to give the European
communication research community an opportunity to assess the scope of such a platform,
Empedocles: European Journal for the Philosophy of Communication will publish a special guest-edited issue on interpersonal communication and social interaction, which could also be the starting point for a new journal dedicated to this area of research: European Journal of Human Communication.

As guest editors for a special edition of Empedocles to be published in December 2011, we welcome proposals for articles that explore contacts and bonds between people, whether in private or public contexts, whether maintained face-to-face or mediated via communication technologies. The articles can focus on interpersonal relationships; group and team
communication; conversational organisation; verbal and nonverbal communication; language and social interaction; intercultural dimensions; public speaking; radio and television performance; rhetoric; argumentation; persuasion and mutual influence; communicative competence and interpersonal skills; ethnography of speaking; and, other related approaches to human social interaction.

We encourage qualitative approaches to research, while also encompassing quantitative inquiry. For this special issue, theoretical, evaluative or interpretative studies are especially welcome.

The journal publishes double-blind peer reviewed articles (6,000-8,000 words).
Submissions should be sent by email before June 15, 2011, to guest editors Pekka Isotalus (pekka.isotalus@ uta.fi) and Owen Hargie ODW.Hargie@ulster. ac.uk).

Empedocles uses the MHRA referencing system. Please download the notes for contributors for further information.
