CFP: Rhizomes 10 (Spring 2005)
'Neo-Liberal Governmentality: Technologies of the Self and Governmental
Conduct'
Guest editor: Hai Ren (Department of Popular Culture, Bowling Green
State
University).
How do governmental discourses that address the lived experiences of
ordinary people, industrial masses, subalterns, ethnic minorities, and
other marginalized populations, construct neo-liberal subjects? This
special issue of Rhizomes invites submissions that draw on Foucaultian
and other theoretical frameworks to address links between technologies
of the self and changes of governmental conduct in terms of Western
or/and non-Western historical experiences.
As a full text online periodical, Rhizomes emphasizes multimedia to
foster work that challenges typical critical forms. While submissions
need not necessarily include developed multimedia, authors are
encouraged to consider how their work might be enhanced by elements
specific to the online medium.
Deadline for submissions: 30th October 2004.
