[ecrea] IAFOR Journal of Cultural Studies - Announcement of Publication, Call for Submissions and Expressions of Interest for Editorial Positions

*IAFOR Journal of Cultural Studies - Announcement of Publication, Call 
for Submissions and Expressions of Interest for Editorial Positions*

It gives us great pleasure to announce the publication of the latest 
/IAFOR Journal of Cultural Studies/, Issue 2.1. It is open-access and 
can be found here: 
http://iafor.org/publications/iafor-journals/iafor-journal-of-cultural-studies

*Call for Journal Submissions and Reviewers*

The /IAFOR Journal of Cultural Studies/ 
(http://iafor.org/publications/iafor-journals/iafor-journal-of-cultural-studies) 
solicits scholarship in the broad areas of culture, social development, 
the arts, digital communities, philosophy and similar.

While much of the Journal’s focus rests on Asia, it encourages 
contributions from all across the globe, thereby establishing links 
between intercultural and transcultural phenomena and fostering their 
analysis. Asia is a continent constantly evolving within a restive world 
and one, if not the main, motor of the drive for change today. It is the 
aim of this journal to provide challenging and incisive commentary to 
accompany this process.

The /IAFOR Journal of Cultural Studies/ is an open access peer-reviewed 
journal for developing topics, threads and nodes of cultural 
understanding. The journal recognises that Cultural Studies is 
necessarily hybrid and fluid in nature and that even the establishment 
of common research fields (itself a highly contested exercise) will do 
little to discipline it. This however does not relieve Cultural Studies 
of the necessary reflection upon its own histories and present-day 
status quo. As cultures are becoming increasingly mediated, ample space 
will be provided for those interventions highlighting the relationship 
between (media) technology and culture. It is hoped that some of these 
discussions will take place in the virtual pages of this journal and 
that these theoretical interventions will stimulate and facilitate 
further research.

The IAFOR Journal of Media, Communication and Film is indexed in EBSCO 
Discovery Service, Communication Source, SHERPA/RoMEO 
<http://www.sherpa.ac.uk/romeo/issn/2187-0667/> and Google Scholar
