📢 PROTAGONIST 3RD ISSUE: The Language of Wars, Genocides, and Conflicts

We are announcing our third call for papers, this time on a topic of the language of Wars, Genocides, and Conflict. Our engagement and consideration of conflicts, both national and international, has undoubtedly changed in the 21st century, especially in recent years. With the aid of media and modern technology, individuals and communities have a bigger space and opportunity to respond to geopolitical events which are both geographically far away and yet have never been closer.

⏰ DEADLINE is 15th of June ⏰

Amidst the organized chaos of reviewing submissions for the next issue, here's a friendly reminder: ISSUE 1 is comfortably settled on our website's virtual shelves, offering nine essays on Transnationalism (incl. the one featured above) – all just a few clicks away!

We’re official! now has its own ISSN number (2788-3051), which means we are a serious serial publication. 🪪😎 This exciting milestone not only locks us in for regular issues, but also makes it easier for scholars, readers, and authors to cite & reference the works published in our journal.

Another curated list of media is in! This time it’s the good, the bad, and the ugly of disability representation in media. Let this serve as a reminder that dis/ability is a rich and intersectional topic - so don't be afraid to challenge conventions in your work (which BTW you can still submit for our ISSUE 2 until June 16th ‼️)

: 📢📢📢 Great news!!! Our editorial team is hard at work reviewing the first batch of submissions. But do not fret if you missed the previous call - the deadline for submission to Issue 2: Dis/ability is extended to June 16!
