Call for Authors: Encyclopedia of Economics and Society

From: Joanne Steinberg <[email protected]>

CALL FOR AUTHORS: *Encyclopedia of Economics and Society*

We are inviting academic editorial contributors to the *Encyclopedia of
Economics and Society*, a new 4-volume reference work to be published by
award-winning SAGE Reference in 2015. Economics is the nexus and engine
that runs society, affecting societal well being, raising standards of
living when economies prosper or lowering citizens through class structures
when economies perform poorly. We only have to witness the booms and busts
of the past decade to see how economics profoundly affects the cores of
societies around the world.

Distinguishing itself from the myriad of economics titles on the market,
the Encyclopedia of Economics and Society takes a fresh, contemporary look
at the subject through social science lenses including Anthropology,
Communications, Criminology, Cultural Studies, Education, Human Geography,
International Relations and Political Science, Law, Psychology, Business,
Sociology, and Human Services. Over 800 articles ranging from 1,000 to
4,000 words flow across categories such as Arts and Culture; Childhood and
Economics; Education and Human Capital; Health and Health Care; Psychology,
Attitudes, and Emotions; Religious Life, and more. The General Editor, who
will be reviewing each submission to the project, is Dr. Frederick Wherry,
Yale University.

We are currently making assignments with a deadline of April 1, 2014.

If you are interested in contributing to this cutting-edge reference, it
can be a notable publication addition to your CV/resume. Your name and
affiliation will also appear in the byline of your entry(ies) in the final
publication. In addition, SAGE Publications offers an honorarium ranging
from SAGE book credits for smaller articles up to a free set of the printed
product for contributions totaling 10,000 words or more.

The list of available articles is already prepared, and as a next step we
will e-mail you the Article List (Excel file) from which you can select
topics that best fit your expertise and interests. Additionally, Submission
Guidelines will be provided that detail article specifications as well as a
sample article for your review.

If you would like to contribute to building a truly outstanding reference
with the Encyclopedia of Economics and Society, please contact me by the
e-mail information below. Please provide your CV or a brief summary of your
academic/publishing credentials in related disciplines.

Thanks very much.
