Colleagues,<br>
<br>
On behalf of the <i>Journal of Multicultural Discourses</i> (Routledge), edited
by Professor Shi-xu (China),
and as one of the book review editors, I would like to invite you and your
colleagues to consider submitting a review for this new journal. Please see
below for further details. A list of
recent publications that can be requested from publishers is also pasted. Other books you may
be interested in reviewing can also be requested, just let us know.<br>
<br>
Kind regards <br>
Miguel Pérez Milans <br>

<b>Call for Reviews</b><br>
<i>Journal of Multicultural Discourses (Routledge)<br>
</i>Editor-in-Chief: Shi-xu<br>
Review Editors: Sharon Harvey, Miguel Pérez Milans, Doreen Wu <br>
‘an exciting and much needed new development. The new journal will help to question
existing assumptions about discourse analysis and ultimately widen
understanding of the processes of language.’ Michael Billig, co-editor,
Discourse & Society, University of
Loughborough, UK</span></p>
<p class="EC_EC_EC_EC_EC_MsoNormal"><span style="" lang="EN-GB"><br>
The Journal of Multicultural Discourses (Routledge), edited by Professor
Shi-xu, is now calling for reviews of publications and events which are
relevant to the purposes of the journal (<a href="http://www.tandf.co.uk/journals/1744-7143">http://www.tandf.co.uk/journals/1744-7143</a>).
In summary, we are seeking reviews that examine 1) the recovery and
reconstruction of intellectual traditions on language and communication from
cultures outside the west (and/or non-western cultures inside the west),
including those discussing the methods and epistemologies of such research and
2) studies in language and communication practices outside mainstream cultures.
For this new journal, the editorial team is particularly interested in
accepting innovative and even provocative reviews which go well beyond content
summaries and promotional endorsements. A range of review formats will be
considered including but not limited to:<br>
* A critical examination of several recent publications<br>
* A fresh consideration of a historical text/s, particularly non-western texts
that have not previously been brought before an international audience<br>
* A contrast and comparison of a seminal work with a recent publication in a
related field<br>
* An analysis of several journal publications in an emerging field<br>
* A description and critique of an event or series of events such as a public
lecture series, conferences or a postgraduate summer school.<br style="">

<p class="EC_EC_EC_EC_EC_MsoNormal"><span style="" lang="EN-GB">The Journal
of Multicultural Discourses has three reviews editors: Sharon Harvey (</span><a href="mailto:Sharon.harvey@aut.ac.nz"><span style="" lang="EN-GB">Sharon.harvey@aut.ac.nz</span></a><span style="" lang="EN-GB">), Miguel Pérez Milans (<a href="mailto:miguel_milans@hotmail.com">miguel_milans@hotmail.com</a>)
and Doreen Wu (</span><a href="mailto:ctdwu@polyu.edu.hk"><span style="" lang="EN-GB">ctdwu@polyu.edu.hk</span></a><span style="" lang="EN-GB">). While you can contact either reviews editor
to propose a review, Sharon will take responsibility for reviews engaging with
cultural studies (including postcolonialism) and related disciplines; Miguel
will be responsible for reviews on the cultural diversity of language and
communication as well as the scholarships on them; Doreen will take primary
responsibility for reviews dealing with linguistics and communication. New
books will be offered for review in the near future and the reviews editors can
request books you are interested in reviewing from the publishers.<br style="">
<br style="">
</span></p>
<p class="EC_EC_EC_EC_EC_MsoNormal"><span style="" lang="EN-GB">Reviews
should be between 1,000 – 3,000 words long (all inclusive). If requesting a
book/books, your review should reach the review editor within three months of
your receipt of the book. Your review is likely to be published within six to
twelve months following the acceptance of the manuscript. We are planning to
include 4-6 reviews per issue (three issues per year). Please see the journal
website (<a href="http://www.tandf.co.uk/journals/1744-7143">http://www.tandf.co.uk/journals/1744-7143</a>)
