2) Call for Special Issue Proposals

Details: https://think.taylorandfrancis.com/ethnic-and-racial-studies-special-issue-proposals/

There are two deadlines per year for the submission of proposals – 30th April and 31st October

  1. Call for Papers for a themed issue on Antiracism

The issue will revisit how social researchers have researched and analysed antiracism.  It will focus on accounts of antiracism, how antiracist movements and ideas have evolved, the way it is understood in different societies and its impact on policy and political agendas. The issue has the broader aim of offering an up-to-date range of papers that reflect current research agendas on antiracism in sociology, anthropology, social policy, and related areas.

We would particularly welcome papers on:

·        theoretical reflection on the evolution of antiracism as a set of ideas and values in relation to its broad conceptual frame and objectives;

·        methodological innovations in investigating contemporary forms of antiracism;

·        case studies of specific antiracist mobilisations and movements;

·        the results of empirical explorations focused on antiracism in various countries or through comparative research.

We require a 500 word abstract, working title and short bio by 17th May 2024 to office@ERSjournal.com  Selected authors will be asked to submit a full paper by 7th December 2024.
