Behind the curtain of election campaigns

In the framework of the "Slovenia and the EU" lecture cycle

the International Institute for Middle-East and Balkan Studies (IFIMES)


invites You kindly to the round table

entitled


"BEHIND THE CURTAIN OF ELECTION CAMPAIGNS"


which will be held on Monday, 10 October 2011, at 16.00 h
in the Auditorium of Center Evropa at Dalmatinova 4 in Ljubljana
.

How does it all start? How the strategy is developed? What is happening behind the curtain? Rumours, political constructs, etc. What is the background of web campaigns? What are the relations of power in the web community? What are the features of today's media? Do they merely observe and report on the campaign or are they the ones who actually direct it? Who actually dictates election winners?

Those and other issues will be discussed at the round table by the following independent experts:

- Sebastjan Jeretič, expert on election campaigns,
- Vuk Ćosić, the guru of the internet and
- Bojan Požar, the founder and editor-in-chief of http://www.pozareport.si/

The round table will be held in the Slovenian language and moderated by Zijad Bećirović.

Attendance is free of charge. Please confirm your participation at telephone number (01) 430 15 33 or at ifimes@ifimes.org


The realisation of the event in Center Evropa was enabled by Government Communication Office and European Commission Representation in Slovenia.
