Please forward to potentially interested parties:

Everyday life in the modern world has become increasingly science
fictional: No longer are cloning, cyberspace, nanomachines, and
prostheses simply the stuff of imagination.  Rather, they have become
increasingly integrated into the daily life of the subject under late
capitalism.  To further understand this phenomenon, we invite
submissions for the next themed issue of Reconstruction, "Science
Fiction & Everyday Life."

Reconstruction <http://www.reconstruction.ws> is a culture studies
journal dedicated to fostering an intellectual community composed of
scholars and their audience, granting them all the opportunity and
ability to share thoughts and opinions on the most important and
influential work in contemporary interdisciplinary studies.

"Science Fiction & Everyday Life" will be published July 21, 2003.
Submissions should be received no later than May 19, 2003 for
consideration.

Submissions are encouraged from a variety of perspectives, including,
but not limited to: geography, cultural studies, folklore, architecture,
history, sociology, psychology, communications, music, political
science, semiotics, theology, art history, queer theory, literature,
criminology, urban planning, gender studies, etc. Both theoretical and
empirical approaches are welcomed.

In matters of citation, it is assumed that the proper MLA format will be
followed. Other citation formats are acceptable in respect to the
disciplinary concerns of the author.

All submissions and submission queries should be written care of
[email protected].

Large files, such as Flash movies or essays with many large pictures,
