[Interpretationandmethods] Workshop on Frames, Framing, Frame Analysis

[Bob Press]

Dora,

Sounds good. Sorry I’m so far away. If anything comes on line from this, I
hope you can share it. 

I have been awarded a Fulbright to go teach and do research in Sierra Leone
for ten months with my wife, Betty, a photographer, starting in September.

Trust you are well.

Bob

Frames and framing across the social sciences:  A workshop

 

9 May 2008, 13.00 – 17.00

 

Vrije Universiteit, Amsterdam

 

Organizers: prof. dr. Dvora Yanow, Vrije Universiteit

dr. Merlijn van Hulst, Tilburg University

 

Frames and framing have been of interest to researchers working in a variety
of disciplines across the social sciences. Not only sociologists (including
students of social movements), but also political scientists (including
policy analysts and planners), anthropologists, and linguists have been
interested in the way actors frame the world(s) in which they live. Gregory
Bateson, Erving Goffman, Donald Schön, Martin Rein, and George Lakoff, to
name but a few, have written persuasively on the topic. 

 

This workshop is intended to gather together scholars across several fields
– including social psychology/social movement theory, management
studies/mediation, public policy analysis, and linguistics – who have
recently and/or are currently writing about frames, (re)framing, frame (or
value-critical) analysis, and the like. We also welcome people interested in
learning more about this kind of research. The workshop is designed to
address the question of how the disciplines represented by invited and
attending scholars have defined, explored, and treated these concepts, as a
way of assessing their use across disciplinary boundaries.
