A Call for Papers
"Political Thought" is a topical quarterly for political and social issues. The editorial board of the magazine "Political Thought" announces an open call for papers for the sixteenth December volume on the topic:
IDENTITIES AND INTEGRATIONS
We would like to point out to the potential authors that the topic can be approached in different contexts, in its Macedonian, regional or European dimension. It would be desirable for the Macedonian authors to reflect on the issue of the Macedonian identity. Beside the main topic, the other rubrics are also open for potential
proposals. Regardless of the rubric in which they are classified, the texts have to be in correlation with the main topic. The other rubrics are "Current", "International Organizations", "Challenges and Perspectives", and "Theory". In "Theory" texts dealing with theories of identities will have advantage, due to the fact that texts dealing with the theories of integrations have been published in previous volumes.
All interested need to submit a short proposal (200-300 words) and a short biography to the editorial board, by November 10 2006 at the latest. The deadline for submitting the final version of the selected proposals is December 5 2006. Proposals and final texts can be submitted in Macedonian, English or German language.
All texts need to be in compliance with the conditions set in the "Standards for publishing texts in the magazine "Political Thought"".
All proposal, texts and questions are to be submitted to s.koljackova@ kas.com.mk
NB: All interested are also invited to give proposal for topics of the 2007 "Political Thought" volumes.
