'National Identities' is a scholarly, peer-reviewed
journal that appears three times a year. It focuses upon national
identities and their relationship between territory, political structures
and cultural traditions. We believe that national identities are primarily
constructed and are not confined to what is called the nation as it is
understood in the Western world since the late c18th. We encourage
scholars from various disciplines to explore the ways social, political
and regional groups constructed their identities, to what aims and how
these identity constructions and images have changed through time.
Furthermore, we invite papers discussing the question of if and to what
extent cultural development is connected to the quest of identity. Against
this background, we welcome innovative research on the following themes
(amongst others):
Identity and territory
Boundaries, borderlands, and national identity
Diaspora populations and national identity
Identity issues in antiquity, the middle ages and the
early modern period
Art, music and identity
Regions, cities and identity
National identity in the developing world
Constitutions and identity
The Cold War and identity
Language and identity
Landscape Architecture, Architecture and identity
Editorial correspondence should be addressed as follows:
Peter Catterall (politics/political
history)
P.P.CATTERALL@qmw.ac.uk
Dave Kaplan (geography)
dkaplan@kent.edu
Elfie Rembold (cultural history)

parallax
parallax is seeking papers to be published in its
themed issues in 2002-3. These issues will be edited by Kurt Hirtler, Ola
Stahl and Ika Willis. Potential contributors are encouraged to contact the
editors for discussion. Email: parallax@leeds.ac.uk
25: Having Sex
26: Writing (in) terror(ism)
27: Mourning Revolution
25: Having Sex
How is sex "had"? And what (or who) is to be done?
The imagery of sex as natural ground is used across multiple fields,
grounding arguments in sexed nature and subjects in a state of
"being" one sex or the other (or - more radically, it is claimed
- a or "the" third). A customary division between sex (as
pre-social, concrete and determined by prediscursive - genetic or
animal - imperatives) and gender (as a set of culturally determined
practices), or between sex and sexuality (as the discursive production of
sex/es), is itself grounded in a particular version of nature which is
already sex(ed) and leaves theory and practice unable ^V shall we say
impotent? - to effect radical change in desiring subjects in this
contested (hardly virgin) territory. Counting on sex leaves us stuck at
one-two-three, or one- two-many.
parallax solicits papers intervening in "sex". Of
particular interest would be readings of the imagery of sex in, for
example, pornography; discourses of territory, land, and ground; slash
fanfiction; and medical imaging technology. Papers could be readings of
the ways in which sexually explicit writings across the arts and sciences
imagine (define, construct, disseminate, re/ produce) sexual or
reproductive organs or mechanisms, and subjects who have (a) sex or are
(a) sex; or of apparently "neutral" (neutered?) theoretical or
philosophical writings which still rely more or less explicitly on sexual
or reproductive terms and categories ("fertile",
"sterile", "seminal", "affiliation",
"genealogy", "hymen", "ass-fuck"). Papers
imagining how sex might be had otherwise are also desired.
SUBMISSION DEADLINE: DECEMBER 2001
26: Writing (in) terror(ism)
What is the (t)error of terrorism (really)? What is (really) the territory
of the terrorist? Is there a way of thinking and writing terror(ism) and
the terror(ist) beyond the territory of its more traditional
representations? Can we effectively renew our approach to this terrain of
terror(ism) through alliance and affirmation rather than through
traditional modes of criticism?
parallax invites creative and critical submissions engaging with
the topic of terrorism; submissions that attempt to move beyond classical
ways of thinking and writing of(f)/on the (t)error of terrorism/
terrorist, towards a thinking and writing in (of) terror(ism), as (on the
) terror(ist). We seek papers dealing with the ethical and aesthetic
dimensions of this field of practices, as well as with the relation
between such an ethico-aesthetic paradigm and the political. Of particular
interest would be papers dealing with the relation between terrorism and
cultural practices such as art, cinema, literature, etc. as well as papers
dealing with the (memory of) actual practices referred to as terrorist.
SUBMISSION DEADLINE: FEBRUARY 2002
27: Mourning Revolution
In recent left-wing writing revolutionary subjectivity struggles to find a
place. Since the failed revolutions of the century the modern idea of a
radical break with the past has been widely regarded as metaphysical,
relying on a fantasmatic structure. Critics have focused on its arche-teleological
implications, which ultimately support a totalitarian and violent
politics. At the same time, though, leftists have argued that the lost
faith in revolutionary activity has led to a de-politicization of
political and social theory. In concentrating on a politics of recognition
the Left has rendered crucial struggles for freedom and equality
invisible, thus reinforcing the existing socio- economic order.
parallax invites contributions which engage with debates
surrounding the loss of revolutionary imagination and investigate
the conditions of possibility of emancipatory practice. Of particular
interest are considerations of the politico-theoretical nature and
function of the concept of revolution in left intellectual discourse
beyond an ethics of redemption and harmony. Papers may address the
relation between critique and hope, tradition and radicalism, writing,
promise and activism, as well as questions concerning passionate
attachments and the dangers of reoccupation. SUBMISSION DEADLINE: MAY 2002

The Politics of Play: Sex, Gender, and Online Gaming
The editor is seeking preliminary proposals for an
edited collection on sex and gender formation in Massive, Multi-user
Dimensions such as Battle-mech, Starcraft, Ultima-Online and
Everquest. As this CFP is merely "exploratory," all
possible topics dealing with sex, gender, and online gaming are
welcome. Proposals should be brief (500 words) and include a working
title as well as the author's full contact information. Please
e-mail proposals to smith_j@wvwc.edu.
All proposals will receive responses and updates on the progress of
the collection. This collection has not yet been placed with a
publisher.

Reader's Guide to Lesbian and Gay Studies
Entries are invited for a reference book,
Reader's Guide to Lesbian and Gay Studies, to be published by Fitzroy Dearborn Publishers
in Chicago. The entries will describe the key secondary literature available in
English on topics important to l/g studies. The entries will ordinarily describe 10
book-length studies on a particular topic, policy, historical period, person,
school of thought, etc. As necessary, article-length studies can be described and
evaluated as well. The entries will ordinarily run to 1000 words, though more
important topics can certainly be longer. Honoraria will ordinarily be $50 (US),
though longer entries will carry larger amounts.
Faculty members and advanced
graduate students are invited to write entries. Further details of this project are
available upon request.
If you believe an entry ought to be included, please contact the editor
at the
email address below. Bear in mind, that there ought to be sufficient
existing
literature to support an entry. Sometimes, interesting topics are not well studied
and may be, therefore, inappropriate for this volume.

Penn State University
The Review of Education/Pedagogy/Cultural Studies is the only journal that
publishes critical essays relating pedagogy to a wide variety of political,
social, cultural and economic issues. We are particularly concerned with issues regarding how pedagogy works within and across
a variety of sites, how pedagogical practices emerge out of specific historical struggles,
concrete projects, and particular relations of power. We welcome submissions
that are interdisciplinary, particularly those that address the relationship
race, class, age and gender as the latter relate to particular projects, struggles, and issues. We strongly
discourage short essays that focus on a single book. Instead, we prefer critical essays that address specific issues
and/or multiple texts.
Prospective contributors should write to editor with a proposal describing
specific areas or recent texts of interest. Such letters should be accompanied by a writing sample and curriculum vita.

Rhizomes: Cultural studies in emerging knowledge and
strange attractions
Rhizomes opposes the idea that all knowledge must grow
in tree structure from previously accepted ideas; new thinking need not
follow established patterns. Rhizomes exists to promote experimental work
located outside or beyond current disciplines and interdisciplines, work
that has no proper location. We are not interested in publishing texts
that establish their authority merely by affirming what is already
believed. Instead, we encourage migrations into new conceptual territories
and new critical forms, the productive mutations resulting from
unpredictable juxtapositions and strange attractions. As our name
suggests, works written in the spirit of Deleuzian approaches are welcomed
but not required.
As an online journal, Rhizomes emphasizes the use of interactive
multimedia as a way of fostering experimental, imaginative scholarship
that challenges existing critical forms. Submissions to Rhizomes need not
include a developed multimedia dimension; however, authors
should consider how their essays might be enhanced by multimedia
presentation and be prepared to work with us to create a dynamic text
suited to our electronic format. In the spirit of dialogue between
contributors and reviewers, Rhizomes engages in an extended and
collaborative review process. In addition to an initial screening by
editors, contributions will undergo a "blind" review by at least
two members of the editorial board for content suitability and
quality. All contributions will be subject to a more technical review of
the multimedia options for enhancing theme as well as design. Authors of
accepted and/or revised contributions will work closely with both the
content and technical editors to establish a more effective
multimedia presentation. Contributors may be asked to supply relevant
image and sound files or to assist in the selection and development
of these options.
Hard copy submissions should be sent to Carol Siegel, English Department,
Washington State University, Vancouver, 14204 NE Salmon Creek Avenue,
Vancouver, WA 98686-9600. If the document is online, please submit a
URL to Ellen Berry eberry@bgnet.bgsu.edu
so that the editors may view the submission in its existing web format.
All submissions should conform to standards for general format and
citation that govern publications in the author's field, and include a
bibliography, if appropriate. We will consider short pieces, but cannot
consider texts of more than 7,500 words, including notes.

of culture on sexual behaviour and attitudes. Medical and epidemiological papers (e.g. of trends in
the incidences of sexually transmitted infections) will not be accepted unless their educational implications are discussed
adequately.

(empirical and theoretical), reviews, proposals for curriculum practice, historical articles and papers
that address methodological issues. Most papers will be printed in normal word format but submissions containing links to web sites with
visual and auditory material are welcomed. Relevant books, curriculum materials
(including software and videos), conferences, films, exhibitions and even sporting events and
architecture will be reviewed. Letters to the editor are also acceptable.

Signs of Life: Medicine and the Cinema
Chapters and appropriate chapter suggestions are sought for:
"Signs of Life: Medicine and the Cinema." which will consider how medicine,
the medical profession and medical science have been presented in the cinema. The book will offer an historical, cultural and textual
study of the filmic representation of medicine and will appeal to both the
film studies and a wider film readership.
This book development project already includes a foreword by a major name in
medicine and the medical humanities and is receiving extremely enthusiastic
responses internationally. We intend for this to be an exceptional book.
The book is divided into three sections:
Section One: The Flicker of Life: Medicine Enters the Cinema
Section Two: Vital Signs: Medical Interventions and the Cinema
Section Three: Dying on film: medical cinema and the end of life
Indicative Chapter Areas (Section One) could include:
[1] Birth of cinema: birth in the cinema
[2] Ability and disability: depictions of "normalcy" throughout film
history
[3] Idealisation of youth and the body in the medical narratives of
the cinema
[4] Puberty and sexual awakening in classical and post-classical
cinema
[5] Gendered and sexualised medicine: the role of medicine in gender and sexual definitions in film (eg: medicine and masculinity,
medicine and the feminine . . .)
[6] The role of film in advancement of medical science:
documentaries and dramas of medicine and the medical professions.
Indicative Chapter Areas (Section Two) could include:
[1] Disease and the cinema
[2] Film injuries: hurting and healing on film
[3] Discoveries: medical science and cinema
[4] Miracles, recuperations and cures
[5] Good health: general practitioners, hospitals and the role of
the patient in the cinema
[6] Film genre and medical intervention
Indicative chapter areas (Section Three) could include
[1] The medical rituals of dying: funerals, wakes and grieving
[2] Violence, killing and cinematic medicine
[3] Corpses and forensics: medicine meets the dead
[4] Spirit and the metaphysical: film, medicine and transcending the
body
[5] War films and the role of medic
[6] Film genre and the medical depiction of the dead and dying
Questions to be debated could include:
"How is the human form made to appear through medicine in film?"
"What contribution do cultural rituals make to filmic representation
of medicine?"
"How do gender, race and sexuality inform filmic constructions of
medical science and medical practitioners?"
"Where are the parameters of the scientific and the personal drawn
in 'film medicine'?"
"In whose interests are these 'signs of life' deployed?"
"What is the relation between history and the filmic depiction of
medicine?"
"How does cinema define the normality and the integrity of our
bodies medically?"
"How does cinema deal with being born, living, ageing and dying and
what role is played by medicine in this filmic narrative?"
