German Politics and Society<\/strong><\/a>
\nVolume 35, Issue 2: Sounds German? Popular Music in Postwar Germany at the Crossroads of the National and Transnational<\/a>
\nRanging across musical genres, time periods, and geographies, this special issue of German Politics and Society brings together contributions from leading scholars on German popular music in Postwar Germany. These investigations into popular music address the genre’s sociopolitical impact and its effects on national identity, thinking about gender and sexuality, and cultural production and consumption.<\/p>\n

Theoria<\/strong><\/a>
\n A Journal of Social and Political Theory<\/strong><\/a>
\nVolume 64, Issue 151<\/a>
\nThis special issue of Theoria: A Journal of Social and Political Theory is dedicated to research on Rick Turner, a South African philosopher of the post Second World War era. The articles address many of the critical themes about Rick Turner’s life and his role in wanting to foster a non-racial and democratic South Africa.<\/p>\n

Critical Survey<\/strong><\/a>
\nVolume 29, Issue 1: \u2018One Green Field\u2019: Walking, Landscape and Ecocriticism<\/a>
\nThis special issue of Critical Survey offers several pathways for critical exploration. It is the first time the journal has explored the field of literary criticism known as \u2018ecocriticism\u2019 or \u2018green cultural studies\u2019, and this will be its first focus on walking literature and related art. In opening up these two routes, our special issue allows a view both on the roles of walking in poetry, literary non-fiction, fiction and the walking arts in the UK and Ireland, and on the possibilities of ecocriticism as a method of addressing these roles.<\/p>\n

Sartre Studies International<\/strong><\/a>
\n An Interdisciplinary Journal of Existentialism and Contemporary Culture<\/strong><\/a>
\nVolume 23, Issue 1<\/a>
\nAlthough the articles published in this edition of Sartre Studies International were not assembled as part of a themed issue, there is every justification for suggesting that they could be grouped under the heading ‘Sartre Today’. Each of them demonstrates that Sartre’s thinking remains relevant to many of the key issues facing our contemporary world.<\/p>\n

International Journal of Social Quality<\/strong><\/a>
\nVolume 6, Issue 2: Experiencing Dignity while Accessing Public Services in the Global North and South<\/a>
\nThis issue is dedicated to the outcomes of the research project \u201cPoverty and Shame: Perspectives and Practices Concerning Anti-poverty Measures in a Global Context\u201d and funded by the Research Council of Norway. Erika Gubrium and Sony Pellissery, partners on the project, present a series of articles with emergent findings from five cases of service provision interactions between antipoverty measure providers and recipients, namely in China, India, Norway, Uganda, and the United States.<\/p>\n

Focaal<\/a><\/strong>
\n Journal of Global and Historical Anthropology<\/a><\/strong>
\nVolume 2017, Issue 78<\/a>
\nNearly a decade after the global financial crisis of 2008, this thematic section investigates one way in which marginalization and precarization appears: boredom. An increasingly competitive global economy has fundamentally changed the coordinates of work and class in ways that have led to a changing engagement with boredom. Long thought of as an affliction of prosperity, boredom has recently emerged as an ethnographically observed plight of the most economically vulnerable. Drawing on fieldwork from postsocialist Europe and postcolonial Africa, this thematic section explores the intersection of boredom and precarity in order to gain new insight into the workings of advanced capitalism.<\/p>\n

The Cambridge Journal of Anthropology<\/a><\/strong>
\nVolume 35, Issue 1: Hope and Insufficiency: Capacity Building in Ethnographic Comparison<\/a>
\nThis issue is quite a milestone: we have reached the thirty-fifth volume of the journal. We will come back to that in the next issue and, to celebrate, there will be a free gift. If there is such a thing\u2026 For the moment, our current issue is a Special Issue guest edited by Rachel Douglas- Jones and Justin Shaffner: it is devoted to the topic of \u2018capacity building\u2019, and we find an anthropological examination of promises in its pages.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
