[Commlist] CfP: Themed Dossiers for Mediapolis – A Journal of Cities and Culture

*CfP: Themed Dossiers for /Mediapolis – A Journal of Cities and Culture/*

Mediapolis – A Journal of Cities and Culture is an interdisciplinary, 
fully open access online journal, drawing a connection between culture 
and the built environment – understood in the broadest sense. We publish 
research in different forms, from research articles to Q&A interviews 
and readings list, and across different academic fields, including but 
not limited to media studies, urban studies, geography, architecture and 
art history as well as digital humanities.

Mediapolis publishes three issues each year – in April, September and 
December – featuring a themed dossier edited by a guest editor, as well 
as contributions edited by the journal’s section editors. For the 
upcoming issues, we are currently accepting suggestions for themed 
dossiers: A selection of 6-8 articles (max. 3.000 words each) that are 
connected through a shared theme. For example, recent dossiers have 
focused on Projection Activism 
<https://www.mediapolisjournal.com/dossiers/dossier-projection-activism/>, 
Lightscapes/Nightscapes 
<https://www.mediapolisjournal.com/archive/vol-10-%E2%84%96-2/>and 
Playable Cities 
<https://www.mediapolisjournal.com/dossier-playable-cities/>. We also 
accept dossiers that emerge out of (small) conferences and symposia. 
While primarily an academic journal, Mediapolis aims to foster a 
responsive, robust, and inclusive debate by publishing work that is 
broadly accessible to a public audience. As a ‘small-gauge’ journal, we 
are particularly interested in publishing timely contributions that 
engage with current topics and objects at the intersection of cities and 
culture, and that feature original thought and work-in-progress rather 
than reviews of the existing literature. In doing so, Mediapolis aims to 
counter the often slow and potentially exclusionary nature of 
traditional publishing models by opening up a space for debate and 
discussion. All work published in Mediapolis is rigorously edited by the 
editorial board, and all dossier articles undergo peer review.

If you are interested in editing a themed dossier for an upcoming issue 
of /Mediapolis/, please reach out with a theme, brief description and 
short bio for the guest editor(s) via email to 
(editor /at/ mediapolisjournal.com) <mailto:(editor /at/ mediapolisjournal.com)>. 
Mediapolis is a fully open access journal, and does not charge APCs.
