ANZCA: NEWS.

This article presents information on the 2005 Australian and New Zealand Communication Association's (ANZCA) conference. This year's conference theme is "Communication at Work," and the program is shaping up to be as stimulating as ever. Vice President Colleen Mills has organized panels, a documentary and papers on topics and from perspectives that reflect the field, including peace and political communication, PR, journalism, new media, technology, organizational communication, gender and communication. The papers, as in previous years, come not only from scholars in Australia and New Zealand, but also from other countries, this year including Ireland, the United States and France. And the highly acclaimed international keynotes, each from different disciplinary perspectives, yet the work of all three can lie within the broader field of Communication; Professor of Linguistics Janet Holmes, Professor of Management Communication George Chaney and Professor of Cultural Studies Graeme Turner. Rooms reserved for ANZCA conference attendees at Rydges Hotel and the YMCA are being snapped up fast, as are the cheap fares from Australia to Christchurch.
