TPRC is an annual conference on communication, information, and internet policy that convenes international and

consist of papers selected from reviewed, submitted abstracts, student posters, and selected panel submissions.

TPRC is now soliciting abstracts of papers, student papers, panel proposals, and student posters for presentation at 
the 2008 conference. Proposals should be based on current theoretical or empirical research relevant to communication 
and information policy, and may be from any disciplinary perspective. TPRC seeks submissions of disciplinary, 
comparative, multidisciplinary or interdisciplinary excellence.

Subject areas of particular interest include, but are not limited to the following (for more detailed descriptions see
