Public Resistance seeks manuscripts
The editors of this on-line journal seek manuscripts that critically
examine and
expose the lies perpetuated in the larger neo-liberal and right wing
assaults on
democracy and the public sphere. Authors must demonstrate genuine
academic rigor
in addressing specific sets of lies and deceptions currently used to
manufacture
consent for increasingly draconian domestic policies and imperialistic
foreign
policies. We are soliciting submissions that are not simply based on
opinion or
conjecture. What is significant to changing public opinion and public
policy is
academically grounded and sound research.
Unlike federal funding agencies, we do not restrict research to
"experimental
design." On the contrary, we heartily encourage humanities based, arts
based,
narrative, ethnographic (including autoethnography), visual, cyborgian
and other
methodological approaches. Submissions are welcomed from across the academic
disciplines, and we encourage the submission of interdisciplinary and
transdisciplinary works. We also solicit articles that can document this
traumatic and critical juncture in both American and world history and
culture.
Therefore, submissions from teachers, students, citizen groups, and teacher
educators are encouraged.
