ACME: An International E-Journal for Critical Geographers

 

Call for New Editors

 

The ACME Editorial Collective would like to invite applications from those interested in being part of the Editorial Collective.  We are particularly looking for a German editor, a Spanish editor and up to two Canadian based editors (who can also be German/Spanish editors).

 

ACME has been running for eleven years and publishes papers in German, English, Spanish, Italian and French (see http://www.acme-journal.org/Home.html).  The journal’s purpose is to provide a forum for the publication of critical work about space in the social sciences ‹ including  anarchist, anti-racist, environmentalist, feminist, Marxist,  non-representational, postcolonial, poststructuralist, queer, situationist and socialist perspectives. Analyses that are critical are understood to be part of the praxis of social and political change aimed at challenging, dismantling, and transforming prevalent relations, systems, and structures of exploitation, oppression, imperialism, neoliberalism, national aggression, and environmental destruction.

 

This role involves directing the shape of the journal, as well as editorial duties to see manuscripts through to publication (including deciding on reviewers, making decisions on manuscript acceptance, editing final articles).

 

In order to apply, please send a one-page covering letter and a full CV. The covering letter should outline why you would like to join the Editorial Collective and what you feel that you would contribute to this post.

 

Deadline for

applications is: September 23rd 2013. Please send your applications to Kath Browne (k.a.browne@brighton.ac.uk).
