**Apologies for cross posting**
The Cultural Report Section of the journal of Celebrity Studies is seeking papers that
examine and explore celebrity and fame in focus areas that are traditionally marginalized.
This is because celebrity is a worldwide phenomenon and no population or
culture is too small to produce, circulate and consume fame. Too often these
cultures do not get explored.
The editor of the Cultural Report seeks papers of 2,500 words in length that approach the movement of celebrity and fame outside of dominant Western contexts and cultures. Suggested topics include, but are not limited to:
Movement of celebrity in the:
Middle East
Latin America
Eastern Europe
African Nations
Asia including Afghanistan, China, India, Pakistan, Japan
Marginal and minoritarian celebrity figures
Indigenous cultures
Peripheral star and celebrity case studies
This is an open call for papers with no set deadline mandated. All accepted papers will be blind peer reviewed. The style guidelines can be found at the following URLs:
