    CALL FOR PAPERS: SYMPLOKE - Special Issue on Globalism and Theory

    SYMPLOKE, a journal of comparative theory and literature, seeks
    submissions for its special issue Globalism and Theory (Vol. 9, Nos. 1-
    2). Welcome are contributions that consider the impact of globalization
    and globalism on both the practice and idea of critical theory and
    cultural studies. How have the discourses of globalism, transnationalism,
    cosmopolitanism, and internationalism affected the production and teaching
    of theory? How have we theorized globalism? How has our notion of theory
    changed in the age of globalism? How have modern and postmodern theories
    of aesthetic and cultural practices participated in the production of
    global discourses? How does globalism change our notion of modernism and
    postmodernism? How has globalism affected the literary and theoretical
    canon? We encourage submissions that crically address the work of major
    theorists and critics of globalism including Baudrillard, Jameson,
    Virilio, Featherstone, Appadurai, Buell, and Robbins. Submission deadline
    is 1 April 2001. Send one copy of the manuscript to Jeffrey R. Di Leo,
