CALL FOR PAPERS: Pacific Asia Inquiry: Multidisciplinary Perspectives
Occasional Papers in the Liberal Arts & Social Sciences Issue 2, Spring 2011
Sustainability and Change in the Pacific Asia Region
Scholars are invited to submit papers focusing on Sustainability and Change in the Pacific Asia Region. Submissions should focus on one or more of the following areas: semantics, language arts, fine arts, society and culture, education, energy, the environment, and sustainable issues of Micronesia. Articles, critical essays, and case studies (both applied and theoretical) across the liberal arts and social sciences are welcome. The research emphasis of this occasional series accommodates in-depth studies on sustainability and change. Contributors are invited not only to share their innovative research, but also to challenge extant positions and perspectives. Any theoretical or methodological approach may be employed so long as it is documented in a readable style of writing that is accessible to specialists and non-specialists alike. Authors may submit their writing about problems and issues associated with any ethnic group, national culture, historical period, genre, or media so long as it has some scholarly or intellectual relevance or relation to Pacific Asia. Manuscripts focusing on or including the Micronesian region of the Pacific are of particular interest.
Submission Procedure
Include the following: on a separate page, provide your name, title and affiliation, and addresses (including street and e-mail addresses); abstract of the paper; and the manuscript. Our blind peer-review process requires that author names and addresses appear only on the cover page. It is important that no identifying information appear in the paper itself. Relevant publications, including the submitter’s name as an author, may appear in the reference section as long as
nothing is said to connect the reference with the submitter’s identity. Authors must follow the conventions of the Publication Manual of the American Psychological Association (5th ed., 2001 or 6th ed., 2009), or the MLA Style Manual and Guide to Scholarly Publishing, (3rd ed., 2008). If the manuscript is accepted by reviewers and the Editor, the author must revise the manuscript into the final camera-ready version for inclusion in the journal. Only minor editorial adjustments will be made during the production stage. Articles are accepted for review with the understanding that they are not being considered, in whole or in part, for publication elsewhere and have not been previously published. Enclose a memo stating whether or not the essay has been published previously or is being considered for publication in another journal or medium.
Note: This is a venue for scholarly essays. Fiction and poetry are not published. The inclusion of artwork, audio, and video is encouraged, to the degree that is technically and ethically feasible. Topics relevant to the journal’s overall interests are included in this call.
Inquiries and Submissions must be forwarded electronically (.doc word doc) to:
