CALL FOR PROPOSALS
LAW TEXT CULTURE
Vol 23 (2019)
Due 30 May
2018
The Editorial Board of Law Text
Culture is seeking proposals for the 2019 special edition of the Journal
(Volume 23), due for publication in December 2019.
Law Text
Culture is a transcontinental, peer-reviewed interdisciplinary journal which
aims to produce fresh insights and knowledges about law and jurisprudence
across three interconnected axes:
Politics: engaging the
relationship of force and resistance
Aesthetics: eliciting the
relationship of judgment and expression
Ethics: exploring the
relationship of self and other.
The annual thematic special
issue, curated by guest editors, is selected by the editorial board. Each issue explores its theme across a range
of genres, with scholarly essays and articles sitting alongside visual and
literary engagements. In this way, Law
Text Culture excites unique intersectional and interdisciplinary encounters
with law in all its forms.
Proposals by potential guest editors should include:
•
a concise description of the proposed theme;
•
a draft call for papers setting out the aims
and concepts of the issue;
•
an indication of the intended authors and how
they are to be identified/contacted (eg whether the proposal arises out of a
seminar series, conference or workshop);
•
the range of genres (eg poetry, scholarly
essays, visual arts etc) expected to be included in the edition; and
•
brief details of the guest editor(s).
Proposals should
be no more than 1000 words and should be emailed to the Managing Editor by
close of business 30 May 2018. For further information, including the role of
guest editors, and the journal style guide, please visit http://lha.uow.edu.au/law/LIRC/LTC/index.html. Details on the editors and themes of
