CALL FOR PAPERS
CONTEMPORARY JUSTICE REVIEW, a new journal focusing on social justice
issues, invites submissions for a special issue on "Coalition
Building/Radical Alliances." We seek papers that explore ways in which
otherwise disparate people and groups are brought together to forge new
connections and partnerships that challenge existing inequalities and
injustices. These may include alliances across the barriers of one or more
of the following: gender, race/ethnicity, class, sexual orientation,
culture, nationality, religion, age, and ability. Possible topics could
include practical and theoretical aspects of coalition building, the
significance of coalitions for accomplishing social change, and how identity
politics and difference can impede and/or make possible the creation of new
alliances. We are interested especially in personal accounts wherein authors
examine the processes of coalition formation on both the interpersonal and
group/structural levels. Cross-cultural, international, interdisciplinary,
and academic/non-academic papers are welcome.
DEADLINE for submissions of one-page abstracts is April 30, 1998.
Notification of selected abstracts will be made by May 30, 1998. Completed
papers will be due by September 30, 1998.
