CULTURAL ANALYSIS: CALL FOR PAPERS!

Cultural Analysis: An Interdisciplinary Forum on Folklore and Popular Culture
invites submissions for the first volume of an interdisciplinary,
international, peer-reviewed journal dedicated to expressive and everyday
culture.
    * We encourage submissions from a variety of theoretical standpoints and
    from different disciplines, including (but not limited to) anthropology,
    archaeology, architecture, art history, cultural studies, folklore,
    geography, history, media studies, popular culture, psychology, rhetoric,
    sociology, and women's studies. We are seeking submissions for the
    following sections: research articles, reviews of works (books, films,
    exhibitions, websites, etc.), and annotated bibliographies.
    * The journal also features published responses to each research article,
    written by scholars from different disciplinary backgrounds. This is
one of
    the ways in which we hope to contribute to interdisciplinary dialogue on
    folklore and popular culture. We ask anyone willing to submit such
    responses to get in touch.
    * The journal will be made available via the internet and will offer
    worldwide distribution at no cost to readers. At the same time, the
journal
    has all the conventional advantages of hard-copy journals, since it
will be
    produced in both .html and .pdf format, ensuring that the journal can
    easily be cited and printed in fixed-page format.




Submission Guidelines:
Authors should submit research articles of approximately 20-30 pages in length
in accordance with The Chicago Manual of Style and include an abstract of 100
words and a Works Cited section (not a bibliography). Submissions should be in
hard copy: if accepted, an electronic version will be requested as well.
Please
bear in mind that Cultural Analysis is interdisciplinary, so
discipline-specific
terms should be used sparingly and explained either parenthetically or in
footnotes. In the future, we hope to publish in multiple languages; for the
first volume, however, we are only accepting submissions in English.

Deadline for submission of articles for the first volume is May 1, 2000.

Please address all correspondence to:

Cultural Analysis
Editor JoAnn Conrad, PhD.
Department of Anthropology, Kroeber Hall
University of California, Berkeley
