Dear Public Culture friends,

We're thrilled to announce the arrival of the latest issue of Public
Culture: TRANSLATION IN A GLOBAL MARKET, guest edited by Emily Apter.
This issue explores questions of translatability--for artists, video
makers, and writers--across the complex cultural and social terrains
of capital.

Contributors to this intellectually and visually rich issue include:
Gayatri Chakravorty Spivak, Emily Apter, Rainer Ganahl, Timothy
Brennan, Renйe Green, Michael North, Dina Al-Kassim, and Sarah M.
Hudgins.

And see what's ahead in vol. 13, no. 2: Marita Sturken on the
weather; Jodi Dean on cybersalons and civil society, Serguei Alex.
Oushakine on political dissent in the Soviet Union, Eric Fassin on
"gay marriage" in France and the United States, Danilyn Rutherford on
money in Irian Jaya, and Adeline Masquelier on neoliberal heathcare
in Niger; Madeleine Doering Isom on the geometry of architecture; and
more . . .

Vol. 13, no. 3, brings a special issue: "The Critical Limits of
Embodiment: Reflections on Disability Criticism" guest edited by
Carol A. Breckenridge and Candace Vogler. The emerging subfield of
disability criticism is debated and extended in essays and
