[ecrea] CALL for EDITED BOOK PROPOSALS for the Routledge Studies in European Communication Research and Education Series

CALL for EDITED BOOK PROPOSALS for the Routledge Studies in European 
Communication Research and Education Series

The Series Editors of the European Communication Research and Education 
Association (ECREA), Claudia Alvares, Nico Carpentier and Ilija 
Tomanic'-Trivundz(a, invite the submission of book proposals for the 
Routledge Studies in European Communication Research and Education Series.

WHO is invited to submit?

The Book Series only allows for edited volumes to be included. Proposals 
for monographs will not be accepted.

The edited volumes of the Book Series aim at providing a diverse 
overview of the work of the ECREA membership. At the same time, a degree 
of openness towards non-ECREA members is also considered to add value to 
the Book Series. For this reason, at least 50% of the chapters need to 
originate from ECREA members (individual members, or members through an 
institutional membership -- see http://www.ecrea.eu/memberlist). For the 
same reason, at least one of the editors needs to be an ECREA member.

WHAT are we seeking?

ECREA Book Series Publications need to have a very clear theme on which 
they focus and which needs to be related to the focal points of ECREA 
(as described in article 3 of the ECREA statutes - see the ECREA website 
http://www.ecrea.eu/about/statutes). Although the series is open to the 
wide diversity of disciplines and subjects present among ECREA members, 
editorial choices will also take into account the potential audience of 
a proposed book.

What is the deadline for submissions?

Proposals need to be sent to the series editors (by email) before 15 
January, 2014.

WHO subsidises the publication?

Each year, ECREA subsidises the distribution of one publication to the 
membership (2^nd year individual members and the coordinators of the 
institutional and associated institutional members). The ECREA Book 
Series editors will be in charge of selecting this publication. Their 
selection will be confirmed by a decision of the ECREA Executive Board.

Other publications may also be included in the ECREA Book Series. In 
this case, ECREA will not subsidize the distribution of the book to the 
membership. The inclusion of the book in the ECREA Book Series will 
still be dependant upon the decision of the ECREA Book Series editors 
and the Executive Board.

A more detailed version of the procedure is available at the 'Bylaws' 
segment of the ECREA website 
(http://www.ecrea.eu/about/statutes#ECREABylaws).

HOW should one submit a proposal or manuscript?

A form to submit a book proposal is available at the 'Members only' 
segment of the ECREA website (http://www.ecrea.eu), more specifically in 
the Document Archive, in the folder "book series". Only this form can be 
used for submitting a book proposal; applications that do not use this 
form will be a priori excluded.

The proposal should include a detailed abstract of each chapter.

TO WHOM should it be sent?

Book proposals and manuscripts can be sent by e-mail (attachment in 
.doc, .docx, .rtf, or .pdf format) to (claudia.alvares /at/ ulusofona.pt).
