CFP: Journal of Jewish Identities Special Issue on Gender
The Journal of Jewish Identities is an interdisciplinary peer reviewed
forum for contesting ideas and debates concerning the formations of,
and transformations in, Jewish identities in its various aspects,
layers, and manifestations. The aim of this journal is to encourage the
development of theory and practice in a wider spread of disciplinary
approaches; to promote conceptual innovation and to provide a venue for
the entry of new perspectives. Submissions are invited from all fields
in the Humanities and Social Sciences and from the full range of
methodologies. Diverse theoretical and philosophical approaches and
methodologies, interdisciplinary research studies, as well as
instructive case studies are particularly welcome. The Journal
publishes empirical and theoretical articles, documents, an occasional
debate section, as well as review essays and book reviews. The Journal
of Jewish Identities is published twice a year. July issues are
special issues. Upcoming special issues include gender (July 2009); and
the modern Russian-Jewish diaspora (July 2010).
Papers should be sent electronically to the editor in chief at
[EMAIL PROTECTED] as Word e-mail attachments, indicating ���Journal of
Jewish Identities: Call for Papers��� in the subject line. Manuscripts
should be prepared using the Chicago Manual of Style. The preferred
length for article manuscripts is 7,000 ��� 10,000 words, but shorter or
longer submissions will be considered and will be reviewed following
the Journals standard process. Please include an abstract of 150 words
(or less) and a biographical note. All articles are anonymously
reviewed. Submissions must be in the American English and are

elsewhere. It is the responsibility of the author to obtain permission
