Before we get started

Thanks for considering a submission to the 'Intergalactic' Conference on Resistance Studies! Before we get started, we just want to make sure that everything is ready.

The Call for Papers for the Conference is open to both academics and other people who implement resistance through activism, art, community, everyday efforts, and much more. All submissions, not matter your background, should:

  • Have a clear focus on 'resistance' and how resistance influences power relations
  • Contribute to our theoretical understanding of resistance; if you are not from an academic background, we still expect you to articulate coherently how your presentation or proposal contributes to our understanding and practice of resistance, for example, how you sharing your knowledge could help or enrich other activists or researchers

We are open to a wide diversity of worldviews and creative ways of presenting and engaging with resistance, whether drawing from literature, personal experience, cultural understandings or more.

For academic submission, it would be helpful for you to check out our policy statement.

If you have ready, we look forward to reading your submission. Let's go!

Before we get started

Thanks for considering a submission to the Journal of Resistance Studies! Before we get started, we just want to make sure that everything is ready. JRS receives more submissions than we can publish. As a journal for a relatively new academic field, it is important for us to publish texts that contribute to developing 'Resistance Studies' with theoretical ideas, high quality empirical material, interesting analysis, and/or cases from a wide spectra of societal contexts.

Does your article:

  • Have a clear focus on 'resistance' and how resistance influences power relations?
  • Contribute to our theoretical understanding of resistance, or is a better fit for the sociology of social movement field?
  • Include an abstract, citations, and a reference list?
  • Does it follow the guidelines in our policy statement?

If you have answered yes to these questions, we look forward to reading your submission. Let's go!
