The next issue of the book series "Relation: Communication Research in Comparative Perspective" is devoted to Jewish images as portrayed in the media – using both historical and contemporary contexts (and with special attention to European and Western media). Papers analyzing media coverage and public opinion as well as exploring connections between messages and media organizations, social, cultural, and legal conditions are welcomed. We are especially looking for papers that take a comparative perspective across time or space. Please submit abstracts of no more than 1.000 words (excluding tables, figures and references) no later than 15 June 2006 electronically to: cmc@oeaw.ac.at. All abstracts undergo blind review, so the name(s) of the author(s) should appear on a separate title page only. Authors will be notified of the status of their paper by 30 June 2006. For accepted articles the deadline of the submission is 17 September 2006. The book series "Relation" is published by the Austrian Academy of Sciences Press.
