Quotes

"The drastic transformations in the ways we communicate create both perils and opportunities, all the more in a context of crisis. The pace of change constitutes a major challenge to scholars, regulators and all those involved in trying to assess the change and anticipate the future trends in further changes to come. The London conference of ICA will gather the largest concentration ever of communication scholars from around the world whose cutting-edge research represents the core of scholarly efforts in studying contemporary communication from a wide range of angles" said Francois Heinderyckx, ICA President-Elect and Professor at the Université libre de Bruxelles. A complete conference guide can be found here:

This is the case with Syria, this is the case with Egypt. I feel that one of the things that Russia is doing with its surveillance techniques is engaging in this competitive race"

...Recounting Air Force One and being held at gun-point he implored, "All of this is exciting and it's different and it's quite unlike any other career... remember that when you look at the mountain that is getting into journalism"
