Call for Papers
Nationalisms and Identities
The Berkeley Journal of Sociology (BJS) invites submissions of
well-written, theoretically interesting papers on topics relating to the
theme Nationalisms and Identities for Volume 47, 2003. We are
particularly interested in research dealing with the ways in which
nationalisms are challenged, reinforced or subsumed by competing axes of
identity. Comparative research and empirical examples are encouraged. We
are also looking for photo essays relating to these issues. Possible
topics include, but are not limited, to the intersection of
nationalism(s)/national identity and:
religion
colonialism
post-colonialities
gender
xenophobia (e.g. refugees)
supra-national institutions (e.g. United Nations, European Union)
immigration/migration/transnationalism
reactionary movements
public/private constructions
American fundamentalism
going beyond nation states (e.g. humanism, peaceful patriots)
reconstruction (e.g. Russia, Eastern Europe)
The BJS provides graduate students and untenured faculty in the US and
internationally with a forum for publishing original, high-quality
sociological research. Many current academic luminaries published in the
BJS early in their careers, including Pierre Bourdieu, Michael Burowoy,
Craig Calhoun, Fernando Henrique Cardoso, Nancy Chodorow, Randall
Collins, Peter Evans, Anthony Giddens, Jurgen Habermas, Arlie
Hochschild, Theda Skocpol and Erik Olin Wright.
Students and faculty from departments outside the discipline of
sociology (such as political science, women s studies, anthropology) are
encouraged to submit articles that have a sociological orientation and
pertain to issues as listed above. Researchers may include suggestions
for constructing social policy, but these suggestions should be strongly
supported by empirical sociological research. Submissions for Volume 47
are due December 1st.2002. All papers submitted to the journal will be
considered for presentation at the 3rd annual BJS conference on March
7th, 2003.
