[haw-info] Peace & Change: Special Issue on the U.S. War in Iraq, Call for Reviewers / Call for Articles

[Marc Becker]

Peace & Change, the scholarly journal of the Peace History Society and 
the Peace & Justice Studies Association, is compiling a special issue 
for mid-2009 which will consist largely of reviews of books and films on 
the Iraq War and related issues, as well as of some articles.  We invite 
interested scholars and activists to volunteer to review selected books 
or films, and to submit articles, or proposals for articles.

Please contact Robert Shaffer of Shippensburg University of 
Pennsylvania, at roshaf at ship.edu, to receive a list of the books and 
films we would like to review for this issue.

Reviews should emphasize the importance of the book in evaluating U.S. 
policies in Iraq or related issues, and the usefulness of the book to 
students, the general public, the antiwar movement, and the critical 
scholarly community.  Reviews for this special issue of Peace & Change 
have a 1500-word limit, or 2500 words for a joint review.  The due date 
for reviews to be submitted will be January 1, 2009.

To submit an article on the topic -- historical perspectives, analyses 
of U.S. policy, analyses of the anti-war movement, or related issues -- 
please also contact Robert Shaffer, with a 250-word proposal, and a 
brief c.v.  Articles will be subject to peer review, and will be due 
December 1, 2008.

We hope this special issue of Peace & Change will be an important 
resource for historians, other peace and antiwar scholars, and antiwar 
activists in general.
