[Commlist] Cfp Global Punk in 21st Century

Following the groundbreaking publication of The Punk Reader: 
Transmissions from the Local to the Global (now in its second edition 
through Intellect Books and the Punk Scholars Network) the series 
editors would like to invite proposals for a second volume in the book 
series Global Punk, to be published in early 2020. The publication will 
be part of an exciting collaboration between Intellect Press and the 
Punk Scholars Network, a partnership that has seen the development of a 
Punk Scholars Network imprint.
The Global Punk series editors – Russ Bestley, Mike Dines, Alastair 
Gordon and Paula Guerra  – are therefore seeking contributions from a 
range of interdisciplinary areas, including cultural studies, 
musicology, ethnography, art and design, history, and the social 
sciences, for an edited volume on post-2000 global punk ‘scenes’, 
reflecting upon the notion of origin, music(s), identity, membership and 
circulation. This book series adopts an essentially analytical 
perspective, raising questions over the dissemination of punk scenes and 
their form, structure and contemporary cultural significance in the 
daily lives of an increasing number of people around the world.
With a truly global outlook, the geographic focus represents a 
‘level-playing field’ – the editors do not wish to inadvertently 
discriminate between countries/cultures and welcome proposals from all 
countries and continents across the globe.

Contributors are invited to submit chapters exploring any of the 
following themes (this list is by no means exhaustive):

•	Use of new media, communications, social networking, Internet
•	Ethnographic considerations of scenes/spaces/places
•	Political appropriation: re-definitions of ‘anarchism’, ‘ecology’ and 
anti-authoritarianism within the punk scenes
•	Notion of local/national/international ‘scenes’, tribes, 
countercultures/subcultures
•	Music and the performer: creativity, authorship, identity, problems 
with definition, crossing musical boundaries
•	Reception, DIY cultures, activisms
•	Lifestyles, festivals, squatting, traveller culture, vegetarianism, 
animal rights, straightedge, etc.
•	Gender, sexuality, class, ethnicity and identity
•	The arts of the punk: record covers and associated graphic styles, 
cinema, video, among others

Proposals should be 500 words maximum and should be submitted together 
with a list of 5 keywords and a brief biography of the author (100 
words). Submitting a proposal implies that the chapter will contain 
original, non-published material and is not simultaneously being 
submitted to another publication.

The deadline for abstract submissions is Friday 29th April 2019, with a 
decision on inclusions being made by Friday 17th May 2019. First draft 
of chapters will need to be finalized by October 1st 2019 to allow time 
for final editing.

Proposals should be submitted electronically to: (m.dines /at/ mdx.ac.uk)
