Call for Papers
1st Issue of Journal of Dialogue Studies
[http://www.dialoguesociety.org/newsletter/images/breaker.jpg]
The Journal of Dialogue Studies (hereafter 'the Journal' or 'JDS') is
a multidisciplinary, peer-reviewed academic journal published twice a
year. Its aim is to study the theory and practice of dialogue,
understood provisionally as: a meaningful interaction and exchange
between individuals and/or people of different groups (social,
cultural, political and religious) who come together through various
kinds of conversations or activities with a view to increased
understanding. Some scholars will want to question that description of
dialogue, and others may be sceptical of the effectiveness of dialogue
as a mechanism to produce increased understanding. The Editors of
course welcome vigorous discussion and debate on these and other
fundamental questions.
The Journal will bring together a body of original scholarship on the
theory and practice of dialogue that can be critically appraised and
debated. It will publish conceptual, research, and/or case-based works
on both theory and practice, and papers that discuss wider social,
cultural or political issues as these relate to the evaluation of
dialogue. In this way, the Journal aims to contribute towards
establishing 'dialogue studies' as a distinct academic field (or
perhaps even emerging discipline). Doing so will be directly useful
not only to scholars and students but also to professionals and
practitioners working in different contexts at various cultural
interfaces.
A concern with the theory or practice of dialogue should be in the
foreground of papers that are submitted, but the Editors do not have
any preference as regards the general disciplinary background of the
work. Indeed contributions will be welcome from a variety of
disciplines which may, for example, include sociology, anthropology,
cultural studies, linguistics, the study of religion, politics,
international relations or law.
The first issue will be published in July 2013 and focus on 'dialogue
studies' as a concept, with particular emphasis on its boundaries,
viability and usefulness as an academic field. The Editors invite
papers that explore questions such as the following:
* What arguments might there be for developing 'dialogue studies' as
a distinct academic field (or perhaps even emerging discipline)?
* What are the implications of doing so?
* What do we mean by dialogue, dialogue theories and dialogue practices?
* How might 'dialogue studies' be of use to academics, policy-makers
and practitioners?
* Where along the spectrum of fields is this field best placed?
* Is dialogue valuable in itself and/or by virtue of its outcomes?
* How does dialogue function in cultural production?
* Are there new directions in dialogue for conflict resolution?
* What can policy-makers learn from dialogue that would benefit the
development or implementation of policy?
Papers should be submitted by email attachment to:
journal@dialoguesociety.org<mailto:journal@dialoguesociety.org> and
must be received by 20th April 2013 in order to allow sufficient time
for peer review. Manuscripts should be presented in a form that, as
far as practicable, meets the requirements set out in JDS Guidelines
for Contributors (coming soon). The running order for issue 1.1,
listing the papers to be published in that issue, will be announced by
the beginning of June 2013.
