[Commlist] *Jeunesse* Call for Editors

*CALL FOR EDITORS*

*DEADLINE: May 15, 2020*

**

/*Jeunesse: Young People, Texts, Cultures*/ is a scholar-led, 
interdisciplinary, peer-reviewed, bilingual academic journal housed at 
the University of Winnipeg. The mandate of the journal is to publish 
research on and to provide a forum for discussion about cultural 
productions for, by, and about young people.

The journal is currently looking for editors who work in one or more of 
the following areas:

  * history
  * queer studies
  * critical pedagogy
  * critical race studies
  * sociology
  * cultural theory
  * digital texts
  * video games
  * film and television.
Duties and responsibilities include finding peer reviewers, assessing 
peer-review reports, preparing reports for the managing board, and 
substantive editing of accepted articles. At */Jeunesse*/, substantive 
editing includes detailed assessment of the logic of the argument and 
comments on stylistic felicity.

While the positions are unpaid, there are considerable benefits to 
working as an editor of */Jeunesse*/: editors help to shape the field of 
studies in young people’s texts and cultures internationally and to 
mentor emerging scholars, and will be offered the opportunity to 
participate in planning future directions of the journal. In addition, 
editors are entitled to request reference letters to aid in promotion 
and tenure from the lead Editor. For the most part, editors will work 
remotely, via e-mail. All editors will receive a free subscription to 
the journal.

Applicants should provide a statement of interest that outlines why they 
would like be an editor of */Jeunesse*/, as well as an account of 
previous editing experience (if any) and a short curriculum vitae that 
showcases other relevant scholarly activities. Statements should clearly 
indicate that applicants are familiar with the journal.

Please send your applications and any inquiries to the Managing Editor, 
Lauren Bosc ((l.bosc /at/ uwinnipeg.ca) <mailto:(l.bosc /at/ uwinnipeg.ca)>).
