James Baldwin and the Reproduction of Racial Capitalism

A Call for Papers for a Special Issue of James Baldwin Review

Social domination, as exerted and felt through the categories of race, class, sex, and gender, finds itself expressed in and through James Baldwin’s work, often unevenly, subject to the peculiarities of his historical moments. Both Baldwin and his interpreters can be seen to elevate one vector of domination in racial capitalist modernity over the others, or forget one at the others’ expense, obscuring our vision of such domination and our capacities for struggling against it.

“The white fathers told us: I think, therefore I am. The Black mother within each of us—the poet —whispers in our dreams: I feel, therefore I can be free.” — Audre Lorde, “Poetry Is Not a Luxury” (1985)

The Incredible Nineteenth Century: Science Fiction, Fantasy, and Fairy Tale (I19) seeks to publish the best scholarship on the century that was, in many ways, the time period in which the modern genres of science fiction and fantasy began, and in which the academic study of fairy tale and folklore has its roots. 

Information, Medium & Society: Twenty-third International Conference on Publishing Studies. 25-26 June 2025, University of Hawaii, Hilo, USA.

Information, Medium & Society: The Publishing Studies Research Network was founded in 2003 with the inaugural International Conference on the Future of the Book. Since then, the Research Network has expanded its scope in two phases. The first was in 2009 when it became the Books, Publishing, and Libraries Research. In this iteration, the Research Network began to look beyond the book as the primary site of investigation. In 2019 the network underwent another change, to become Information, Medium & Society - The Publishing Studies Research Network.

Conservative Camp

Edited by Darin DeWitt and Nicole Seymour

We invite contributions for an edited volume titled Conservative Camp, on which we are working with the University of Minnesota Press’ Humanities Editor Leah Pennywark. This volume seeks to explain how camp aesthetics, long associated with the progressive Left and with queer communities in particular, have recently been appropriated by conservative movements, particularly by homophobic and transphobic figures on the Right.
