 Call for Papers

ARIEL (A Review of International English Literature) invites submissions
for a Special Issue:

 World "Youth" Cultures: Transnational Movements and Local Hybridities
 Edited by Donald E. Hall, California State University, Northridge

This special issue of ARIEL will examine the intersection of
postcolonial theory and the study of transnational youth movements and
local youth cultures and subcultures. Possible topics include music and
music cultures; representations of youth in literature and film; the
emergence of youth "street" cultures; youth self-representations in art,
dance, clothing, and graffiti; and youth slangs and language
hybridities. Of special interest are the exploration of how constructs
such as "youth," "adolescent," "young adult," and "child" encode
national traditions, colonial impositions, and postcolonial
negotiations. Completed Essays due 15 December, 2000. For further
information, contact Donald E. Hall (donald.hall@csun.edu). For general
information concerning ARIEL, including guidelines for contributors, see
