Any group and any time period between 1956 and 1991 will be considered. The workshop and subsequent publication of articles in a special journal issue is part of the AHRC sponsored project 'Dropping out of Socialism', which examines a variety of drop-out cultures in Eastern Europe and the Soviet Union. We are planning to hold a workshop in Bristol, UK in the spring of 2014, when authors present their articles for discussion. A final manuscript will be expected by the summer of 2014. Please send a short proposal (max 500 words) and a CV to [log in to unmask]<http:[log in to unmask]>by 1 June 2013. For further questions please consult our webpage or contact [log in to unmask]<http:[log in to unmask]> .
