The media has long been considered a powerful tool for the fighting of injustice and for holding powerful individuals and institutions to account. How do questions of justice interact with those of power, ownership and control, as well as those of (self)censorship? To what extent and where has mainstream media maintained independence and integrity? What is the role of social media? And where is press freedom non-existent or increasingly curtailed? What of the role of investigative journalists, citizen journalists, and whistleblowers? Film and media, like art and literature, are multi-layered forums for probing the depths of the multifarious concept of “justice.” This can relate to its ethical and moral branches (social, legal, moral justice, etc.) as well as its less tangible embodiments (poetic justice, rough justice, etc.). Fictional films and documentaries frequently celebrate victories of justice and triumphs over adversity in functioning democratic institutions (e.g. Twelve Angry Men), while others explore more fractious moral and ethical dilemmas related to the concept. For instance, can there ever be a moral justification for acting above the law – even committing a serious crime for a “higher purpose”? One might reference Woody Allan’s countless adaptations of Dostoyevsky’s novel Crime and Punishment. Is a work of fiction or media reporting culpable if it falsifies for a “good cause?” Does justice have a “dark side,” or is this the outcome of it being manipulated? Questions like these have been with us throughout the ages. Do they exist as boundaries for reflection rather than questions to be answered? Some modern TV series look into justice issues from a legal point of view, but also probe the psychology of many types of people on both sides of the law. What do these contribute to the better understanding of the complexities of human nature and human emotion exposed in them? We expect this open and enduring theme to excite a number of stimulating research paths, and look forward to their outcomes. Submissions are organised into the following thematic streams: -Advertising, Marketing, and Public Relations -Digital Media and Use of New Technology in Newsgathering -Communication Theory and Methodology -Critical and Cultural Studies, Gender and Communication -Media Disaster Coverage -Media History -International Communication -Law, Policy and Media Ethics -Newspapers and Magazines as Print/Digital Media -Mass Communication -Broadcast Media and Globalization -Journalism -Education and Scholastic Journalism -Sports, Media and Globalization -Media Management and Economics -Political Communication and Satire -Visual Communication -Media and Education: Training journalists -Social Media and Communication Technology -Documentary Production -Film ***MediAsia2016 Conference Chairs and Featured Speakers Professor Gary Swanson Conference Co-Chair and Featured Speaker CEO D’image Studios Former Hansen Endowed Chair in Journalism and Distinguished Journalist-in-Residence, The University of Northern Colorado, USA Dr. James Rowlins Conference Co-Chair Singapore University of Technology and Design, Singapore Dr. Paul Spicer Conference Co-Chair and Featured Speaker Hiroshima Jougakuin University, Japan Professor Richard Roth 2016 Keynote Speaker Northwestern University, United States Mie Yanashita FilmAsia2016 Piano Performer Silent Film Pianist Dr. James Rowlins FilmAsia2016 Conference Co-Chair Singapore University of Technology and Design, Singapore ***The IAFOR Documentary Film Award and Festival 2016 at MediAsia and FilmAsia2016 Documentary film is strongly in line with The International Academic Forum’s vision as an academic think tank that promotes international, intercultural and interdisciplinary discussion and exchange.
