Details

Peace Review: A Journal of Social Justice is welcoming essays for an upcoming special symposium on ‘Migrants and Cultures of Hospitality’ (Issue 26, No. 2).

The editor for the symposium will be Lois Ann Lorentzen. This thematic issue will focus on how undocumented migrants often experience situations where even basic human rights seem inapplicable.

The editor is particularly interested in essays that address the socio-historical conditions for the practice of hospitality; theories of hospitality; case studies of hospitality to migrants and their families in countries of origin, transit, and destination. A wide variety of approaches to the subject will be considered.

Potential contributors should submit essays of 2500-3500 words including short bios to Peace Review prior to January 15, 2014.

Questions and inquiries should be sent directly to Lois Lorentzen (Email: lorentzen@usfca.edu) and completed essays should be sent via email to Robert Elias (Editor in Chief) and Erika Myszynski (Managing Editor) of Peace Review at the following email address: peacereview@usfca.edu
