Call for Reflections, The Future of Global Ethics Forum
Journal of Global Ethics, forthcoming issues 10:2 (23 May) and 10:3 (31 August)
For the tenth anniversary of Journal of Global Ethics, the editors solicit brief comments concerning the future directions of the fields of global ethics, global justice, and development ethics, through August 2014, for issues 10:2 and 10:3 of the journal. We anticipate that this invitation will draw focused and topical reflections regarding the current possibilities for the development of these fields. We particularly hope that reading these reflections will spark the interest of graduate students and early-career practitioners, and indeed, we hope that some reflections will come from among them as well. We also hope that the publication of these reflections will lead many who are at more advanced stages in their work to reflect upon the possibilities they may envision for practice and scholarship in these fields.
Invitations sent to various area leaders for issues 10:1 and 10:2 have borne their first fruits, to be found in the pages of issue 10:1 of Journal of Global Ethics, which will issue very shortly. We present an open request for similar contributions from our readership. This is an opportunity for you to write very directly to call the attention of colleagues and especially future colleagues to specific areas in which you would wish to see work accomplished in theory, in research and in action. We consider this section of offerings a forum, rather than a space of traditional peer review: to the extent that space allows, we expect to publish all Forum offerings that we find to be cogent. If you would like to view the forthcoming material included in issue 10:1, which includes thoughts by Paul Collier, Adela Cortina, Nigel Dower, Jay Drydyk, Kimberley Hutchings, Maina Kiai, Shunzo Majima, and D. A. Masolo, please just let us know. That writing could itself promote explicit reflection in the coming journal issues, if that strikes you as productive.
Our request is for a comment of whatever length you wish to provide up to 4000 words. Please also provide an abstract of 100 words or fewer and a list of at most five keywords. Submit material -- with "Future of Global Ethics" in the title or written as the first line of the manuscript -- to the journal's editing system by the usual article submission process (see “Instructions for authors” at the journal’s webpages: http://www.tandfonline.com/action/authorSubmission?journalCode=rjge20&page=instructions). For issue 10:2, the due date for submissions is 23 May 2014; for issue 10:3, it is 31 August 2014.
