Following the groundbreaking publication of The Punk Reader: Transmissions from the Local
to the Global (now in its second edition through Intellect Books and the Punk Scholars
Network) the series editors would like to invite proposals for a second volume in the book series
Global Punk, to be published in early 2020. The publication will be part of an exciting
collaboration between Intellect Press and the Punk Scholars Network, a partnership that has
seen the development of a Punk Scholars Network imprint.
The Global Punk series editors – Russ Bestley, Mike Dines, Alastair Gordon and Paula Guerra
– are therefore seeking contributions from a range of interdisciplinary areas, including cultural
studies, musicology, ethnography, art and design, history, and the social sciences, for an edited
volume on post-2000 global punk ‘scenes’, reflecting upon the notion of origin, music(s),
identity, membership and circulation. This book series adopts an essentially analytical
perspective, raising questions over the dissemination of punk scenes and their form, structure
and contemporary cultural significance in the daily lives of an increasing number of people
around the world.
With a truly global outlook, the geographic focus represents a ‘level-playing field’ – the editors
do not wish to inadvertently discriminate between countries/cultures and welcome proposals
from all countries and continents across the globe.
Contributors are invited to submit chapters exploring any of the following themes (this list is
by no means exhaustive):
Proposals should be 500 words maximum and should be submitted together with a list of 5
keywords and a brief biography of the author (100 words). Submitting a proposal implies
that the chapter will contain original, non-published material and is not simultaneously
being submitted to another publication.
The deadline for abstract submissions is Friday 29th April 2019, with a decision on
inclusions being made by Friday 17th May 2019. First draft of chapters will need to be
finalized by October 1st 2019 to allow time for final editing.
