Dear Colleagues,
This is an invitation to contribute original poetry, short stories, review
pieces (max 500 words), cartoons or images consistent with the theme to an
interesting publication. Pieces would need to be received by the guest
editor no later than October 5th (4 weeks off). Contact details are those
at the end of this post. Reply off list.
This is an Issue of the journal/magazine Social Alternatives. The Issue
will be devoted to disability. Social Alternatives is a quarterly
publication and has produced Issues now for over 20 years on a range of
socio-political and cultural themes from Peace Studies, Globalisation,
Radical Democracy, Sexism, Racism, Environment Education and the Arts. This
will be its first Issue on Disability ! It is published by the Department
of Government at the University of Queensland, Australia.
The Issue will have a selection of articles (about 11) covering important
social, economic, cultural and legal issues on disability and some which
highlight a lived experience within disabling social context. Some of the
authors will be familiar to list members. The issues canvassed by the
articles are universal, although their is an Australian perspective in some
pieces.
Anyone interested in the purchase of this particular Issue of Social
Alternatives should make contact. It might be for example that the Issue
could be a useful reference for students. It will certainly cover a range
of important issues in an interesting way. Substantially reduced rates are
available for bulk orders.
Also, for anyone interested in advertising the rates are very reasonable.
Rates (Australian $): $120 quarter page, $220 half page, $440 full page.
Inserts - $100 per issue. Please let me know if you are interested and I
can advise.
I'm hopeful and look forward to some interesting contributions. Best of luck
Mike Clear
(Guest Editor)
