Call for Publications Theme: Interality Studies Publication: China Media Research Date: Special Issue Deadline: 30.10.2016 __________________________________________________ From: Guo-Ming Chen <gmc...@uri.edu> This special issue (CMR-2017-04) is a follow-up to the special section of China Media Research (Vol. 11, No. 2, 2015) on interology and the special issue of the Canadian Journal of Communication (Vol. 41, No. 3, 2016) on interality. The concept of interality comes from the Chinese ideograph "間," which presents the image of the sun shining through an interval in the door. The character has since acquired multiple meanings including interval, betweenness, beyondness, empty space, void, liminality, interplay, etc. The purpose of the special issue is to take interality studies forward from a multiplicity of perspectives, partly to illustrate the serviceability of the concept of interality. We are open to submissions that elaborate on, problematize, apply, or otherwise engage the concept through a plurality of lenses, including humanities, social sciences, sciences, and other disciplines. We especially welcome contributions that bring the concept to bear on problematics that matter in the here and now. Submissions must not have been previously published nor be under consideration by another publication. We will accept complete papers or extended abstracts (800-1000 words) at the first stage of the reviewing process. Please email a Word attachment of the submission to the guest editor, Peter Zhang at zha...@gvsu.edu. Please include "CMR Submission" in the subject line. All abstracts must be received by October 30, 2016. The complete manuscript must be received by April 15, 2017 after the abstract is accepted. Accepted manuscripts should be prepared in accordance with APA style and should not exceed 8,000 words (including references).
