DISSERTATION REVIEWS
http://dissertationreviews.org/
Founded in 2010, Dissertation Reviews features overviews of recently
defended, unpublished doctoral dissertations in a wide variety of
disciplines across the Humanities and Social Sciences. Our goal is to
offer readers a glimpse of each discipline’s immediate present by
focusing on the window of time between dissertation defense and first
book publication.
Each review provides a summary of the author’s main arguments, the
historiographic genealogy in which the author operates, and the main
source bases for his or her research. The reviews are also
anticipatory, making educated assessments of how the research will
advance or challenge our understanding of major issues in the field
when it is revised and published in the future.
Dissertation Reviews also features reviews of and guides to archives,
libraries, databases, and other collections where such dissertation
research was conducted, to help scholars improve their ability to
undertake current and future research. In the 2013-2014 season we have
posted 400+ reviews of dissertations and other articles, and we
receive around 2,000 visitors daily.
We are now accepting dissertations in Science Studies (broadly
defined) for review for our 2014-15 season. If you are a recent PhD
(2012 to the present) and are interested in having your dissertation
reviewed, please provide the necessary information on our Request
Review page on http://dissertationreviews.org/review-be-reviewed.
If you are interested in acting as a reviewer, contributing a "Fresh
from the Archives" or "Talking Shop" article, or helping the DR Team
in some other way, we would love to hear from you. Please contact us
via [log in to unmask] and tell us about your
work!
