Thinking Acts is an
interdisciplinary, electronic undergraduate journal focusing on a wide range of
topics at the intersection of philosophy, politics, cultural studies and
literary theory. Thinking Acts provides undergraduate students with a forum for
the discussion of the theoretical legacy of classical thinkers today (from
Plato to the twenty-first century) as well as for theoretical analysis of
contemporary world events. The aim of the journal is to expand the space for
interdisciplinary dialogue, critique, and innovation.
Call for papers
Thinking Acts is pleased to announce its call for papers for
the inaugural volume. We especially welcome article submissions that re-conceptualize
the relation between thought and action, theory and praxis,
knowledge-production and the techno-political apparatus. The deadline for
submissions is February 1st, 2007, but feel free to submit papers any time between now and
then. We plan on publishing the first volume in June 2007.
All submissions must
be formatted for blind review. Please include the author’s name, email address,
mailing address, university affiliation, and paper title on a separate cover
sheet. Only the paper title should appear in the body of the paper.
Papers written for classes or for senior theses are also accepted, though
theses will likely need to be shortened or condensed.
We accept papers ranging from 10 -
20 pages in length, though the lower and upper size limits are flexible. Please
enclose an abstract for your paper. All papers should follow standard MLA
formatting.
