17. March 2025
The DCID-Lab will be represented at the 70th Annual Conference of the DGPuK “Values” from March 19 to 21 in Berlin with five contributions by Cornelius Puschmann, Patrick Zerrer, Jan Rau and Philipp Kessling.
The 70th annual conference of the German Society for Journalism and Communication Studies (DGPuK) will take place from March 19 to 21, 2025 at Freie Universität Berlin. Under the guiding theme of “Public spheres and their values”, the conference focused on the role of values such as freedom, justice, equality, security, solidarity and truth in social coexistence and public discourse. Current global challenges such as the coronavirus pandemic, geopolitical conflicts and the climate crisis underlined the need to reflect on and critically examine these values. Over four days, the conference will offer a diverse program with almost 200 lectures, panel discussions and workshops in which current research findings on the relevance, negotiation and implementation of values in (digital) public spheres will be discussed.
