This is just a friendly reminder that the deadline for submitting a
proposal for the EUENGAGE Automated Text Analysis Workshop in Amsterdam is
approaching soon. Interested scholars are invited to submit a paper
proposal until 1 March.

The EUENGAGE Automated Text Analysis Workshop is a 2-day workshop on text
analysis at which best practices in applied work, new methodologies, and
findings from text analysis are exchanged and discussed. In particular, we
are interested in substantive applications of text analysis within the
topics (broadly defined) of public opinion, elite communication or party
politics in the EU.

The workshop is organized under the umbrella of EUENGAGE, a Horizon-2020
funded program, which studies the changing nature of elite-mass
interactions in the European Union, and for which the analysis of
(elite-generated) text is of central importance (see http://www.euengage.eu/
for more information).
It will take place 21-22 June 2016 at the University of Amsterdam, starting
21 June around noon and ending 22 June around the same time. This will
leave scholars who also plan on attending EPSA (23-25 June) enough time to
travel to Brussels, which is a comfortable 2-hour train ride from Amsterdam
with trains leaving every hour.
