Dear colleagues, You may know that we just had an international workshop in Kiel in September 2017 “The Rise and Fall: Environmental Factors in the Socio-Cultural Changes of the Ancient Silk Road Area”. http://www.gshdl.uni-kiel.de/download/calendar/4_Program5_Si lkRoad_Workshop20170928.pdf http://pages-igbp.org/component/simplecalendar/127-pages/170 8-silk-road-wshop-17?Itemid=322 http://www.gshdl.uni-kiel.de/download/calendar/CfP_SilkRoad_Workshop2017.pdf The workshop is publishing a book of the proceedings (edited volume), and Springer has agreed to publish it. We have collected 18 full papers from the workshop participants, which are currently under review. To share the information and opportunity to those interested in the topic but unable to attend the workshop, we would like to invite additional up to 5 papers. We would appreciate if you consider contributing something. The proposed title of the book is "Socio-environmental dynamics along the historic Silk Road". The contents are grouped into 5-6 sub-topics each including 4-5 papers. If you are interested, please express interests with an abstract by October 31, 2017. The full paper should be submitted by the end of this year December 31, 2017. All papers will undergo a strict peer-review process and the book is planned to be published in March/April 2018. Feel free to share the information to others in your network, and to contact me if you have any questions.
