Whitehead Critical Edition is Coming!

The press release.

CFP: Public Affairs Quarterly

Public Affairs Quarterly solicits proposals for a special issue in the 2014 volume. A special issue comprises 4-5 papers, of 6,000-9,000 words each. Papers will be reviewed by the special issue's editor, and also peer-reviewed by the journal. Proposals should be related to any area of the journals coverage, of which details can be found on its website:

http://www.press.uillinois.edu/journals/paq.html

Proposals should include:

1. A description of the topic and its relationship to the journal (250-500 words);

2. A list of contributors and titles; and

3. Abstracts of the proposed papers (250 words each).

Preliminary inquiries may be submitted without abstracts, but the contributor list should not be merely speculative; some contact with those contributors--and reasonable expectation of their participation--should be established.

Submissions should be sent to paqjournal@gmail.com.
