Call for creative submissions: disClosure 13 (Pangaea) 

The Committee on Social Theory, a consortium of University of Kentucky 
scholars dedicated to the furtherance of multi- and trans-disciplinary 
research, invites creative and experimental submissions for inclusion in 
the upcoming issue of disClosure: A Journal in Social Theory. The theme 
of the upcoming issue focuses on how theories of globalization address the 
arrival of new forms of transcontinental connections through the 
development of technologies, social, cultural, and political practices, 
capital, global human and environmental epidemics, etc. To this end, we 
invite writers and artists with similar interests to submit creative 
and/or experimental pieces; submissions may be in the form of poetry, 
short story, narrative, a combination thereof, or other appropriate 
formats. We include a "literary/experimental" section because we are not 
only interested in furthering multi-disciplinary scholarship, but also 
encouraging the exploration of theory through different mediums and 
genres. Thus, the cfp is soliciting materials for an academic journal. 

Persons interested in submitting should adhere to the following guidelines: 

Papers: Include three copies of text submissions, double spaced and no more 
than 10,000 words. Manuscripts, notes, and bibliographies should follow MLA 
format. Art and other graphic material may be submitted as transparencies, 
prints, or electronic files (with hard copy provided for proofing). Please 
do not submit material that has been half-toned for publication (e.g., 
pictures in books or catalogues). 

Art/Poetry: Artists should submit digital or camera-ready material. 
Electronic submissions should be accompanied by a hard copy. 

Art cannot be returned, so do not send originals. Include one copy of 
poetry submissions. 
N.B. Authors are responsible for securing copyright and fair-use notices 
and must submit them prior to disClosure publication. All material accepted 
by disClosure for publication becomes property of the journal. disClosure 
is not responsible for loss or damage resulting from submission. 

DEADLINE FOR SUBMISSIONS: 01 JUNE 2003

from authors and artists (academically affiliated or not) concerned with 
social theory. Editorial decisions are based solely on quality and 
originality.

past, editorial collective members have interviewed: David Roediger, Linda 
Alcoff, Alexander Cockburn, Jane Flax, David Harvey, Chantal Mouffe, Gloria 
Anzaldua, Paul Taylor, Cindi Katz, bell hooks and others. Art and poetry 
submissions from international and more local contributors have also 
appeared in disClosure as important expressions relating to the themes 
considered.
