CALLFOR AUTHORS: African Culture/SAGE Reference
Dear Professors,
We are inviting academic editorial contributors to a new reference work: Cultural Sociology of the Middle East, Asia, and Africa: An Encyclopedia.
The four volumes include:
Volume 1: Middle East
Volume 2: Africa
Volume 3: East and Southeast Asia
Volume 4: West, Central, and South Asia
In our age of globalization and multiculturalism, it has never been more important for Americans to understand and appreciate foreign cultures-how people live, love, and learn in areas of the world unfamiliar to most U.S.students and the general public. The Cultural Sociology encyclopedia takes a step forward toward presenting concise information with historical and contemporary coverage of the Middle East, Asia, and Africa, as four volumes of area studies illuminate the powerful influence of culture on society.
Each title comprises approximately 200 articles organized chronologically and alphabetically, addressing such academic disciplines as sociology, political science, women's studies, business, art, history, religion, law, health, education, economics, and geography. It is the intent of the encyclopedia to convey what daily life was/is like for people in these regions. Each article ranges from 600 to 3,000 words. We are now making new assignments due December 1, 2010.
This comprehensive project will be published by SAGE Reference in 2012 and will be marketed to academic and public libraries as a print and digital product available to students via the library's electronic services. The General Editor, who will be reviewing each submission to the project, is Dr. Orlando Patterson at Harvard University.
If you are interested in contributing to this cutting-edge reference, it is a unique opportunity to contribute to the contemporary literature, redefining sociological issues in today's terms. Moreover, it can be a notable publication addition to your CV/resume and broaden your publishing credits. SAGE Publications offers an honorarium ranging from SAGE book credits for smaller articles up to a free set of the printed product or access to the online product for contributions totaling 10,000 words or more.
I have attached the complete article list, submission guidelines, and sample article for your review.
1.) Cultural Sociology Article List.xls https://spreadsheets.google.com/ccc?key=trAY44nsfzrg43OdWusgtgg#gid=0
Please note excel file tabs labeled as follows:
"VOL 1" (Middle East)
"VOL 2" (Africa)
"VOL 3" (East and Southeast Asia)
"VOL 4" (West, Central and South Asia)
You may use the tabs to advance to the list of articles for each region. Within each volume you will also note the entries are organized according to historical time period. The intent of the encyclopedia is to explore each topic's relevance to and influence on culture and society within the region.
