The 100-year anniversary of the Russian revolutions
Slavic Review Special Fall 2017 Issue
Deadline : September 10, 2016
Social protest movements across the political spectrum and the globe indicate
the continuing importance of the 1917 Russian revolutions. For a special Fall
2017 issue of Slavic Review we seek short essays not previously published that
draw on original scholarly research. The essays should provide a significant
new interpretative and analytic framework for the concept of revolution
generally and particularly on the global impact of the 1917 events in the
short
and long term, in Russia and Eastern Europe and beyond, and their extended
repercussions and legacy to the present day across national boundaries and
realms of human endeavor. All disciplines are welcome. Manuscripts (in
English) should highlight the conceptual impact and analytic and
interpretative
themes of the work.
Papers will be 3000 words maximum, not including notes. Abstracts of a few
sentences must be submitted by September 10, 2016 to the editor at
slavrev@illinois.edu; those given the green light must be developed into
papers
by November 10, 2016. (This leaves time for review and rewriting for a final
deadline of early February 2017).
