[ecrea] CFP: Secrecy and Society

Secrecy and Society: Issue 2: CFP
This call for papers is a response to resurgent political trends, 
especially in the wake of recent world events and social movements. In 
Issue 2 of Secrecy and Society, we address the subject of secrecy and 
authoritarianism, including how ideology and popular beliefs are 
constituted through knowledge claims such as "alternative facts," 
disinformation, disingenuous rhetoric, “populist conspiracy theory,” 
"post-truth," and propaganda.
We welcome papers that also propose novel theories and methods that 
conceptualize these subjects. The inspiration for this special section 
is Richard Hofstadter’s paranoid style in politics, history as 
conspiracy, and ideas on anti-intellectualism. We encourage scholars, 
including doctoral students, from around the globe to submit their work.
In addition to papers on the theme of secrecy and authoritarianism, 
submissions that address any aspect of secrecy and society will be 
considered.
