[Air-L] Journal of Hate Studies Call for Submissions

[Lisa Silvestri]

The Journal of Hate Studies General Issue, Vol. 17 with a Forum on
“Pandemania”

Guest Editor: Lisa Silvestri (Gonzaga University)



*The Journal of Hate Studies* is an international scholarly journal
promoting intellectual engagement with processes that embolden the
expression of hate. The goal is to establish a deep repository of theory
and research on which to ground practical anti-hate interventions. For
example, past articles in the journal have:



·      Examined hate in any one or more of its manifestations (e.g. racism,
misogyny, antisemitism, homophobia, religious intolerance, ethnoviolence,
anti-immigrant animus, etc.).

·      Considered how hate is institutionalized, maintained, or perpetrated
through culture, organizations, policies, politics, media, discourses,
epistemologies, etc.

·      Developed, adapted, or refined disciplinary specific or
trans-disciplinary research methods for understanding and/or effectively
addressing hate.



*The Journal* reflects the optimism that understanding hate can lead to its
containment, allowing humans to flourish without fear of reprisal.



For this issue, we will accept both general submissions on any topic within
the field as well as contributions destined for a subsection featuring
conversations on hate taking place during the COVID-19 pandemic. General
submissions range between 6,000-8,000 words. Forum submissions are shorter,
ranging between 3,000-5,000 words. Potential topics covered by the
“pandemania” forum can include, but should not be limited to, the following
COVID-19 focused topics:



Racism and anti-racism

Xenophobia

Protests

Policing

Masks and social distancing

Institutional violence

Digital manifestations of hate



We invite both textual and visual submissions employing interdisciplinary
and innovative approaches in the humanities and social sciences. To float
ideas and proposals for the general submission or for this forum,
specifically, please contact silvestri at gonzaga.edu.



*Brief Guidelines for Submissions*

The Journal seeks compelling articles written with precision and depth that
find resonance with an interdisciplinary audience. A primary criterion for
acceptance is the level to which the article enriches, extends, and
advances the study and understanding of hate in its multiplicity of forms.



Research-based submissions should follow 7th APA format and include a
discussion of approach, method, and analysis. Submissions focusing on
pedagogy should balance theoretical frameworks with practical
considerations of how particular approaches play out in both formal and
informal educational settings. Discipline-specific submissions should be
written for non-specialists.

All work appearing in The Journal undergoes extensive double-blind
peer-review. As a courtesy to our reviewers, we will not consider
simultaneous submissions, but we will do our best to reply with reviewer
comments within 4 months of the submission deadline. All work should be
original and previously unpublished. Essays or presentations posted on a
