Critical Arts: A Journal of South-North Cultural and Media Studies
November 28, 2008
Critical Arts has niched itself in terms of conceptual freshness, textured writing, and experiential analysis which draws readers into its articles, its narrative themes and its theoretical explorations. Articles published in Critical Arts are universal in reach while retaining a particularity of context, specificity of content and relevance of topic. We invite articles which have the potential to influence the ways in which disciplines represented by cultural and media studies think about themselves in terms of critical dialogues generated within the South-North relationship, and with special reference to Africa. How do people, institutions and constituencies cope within, resist and engage this relational nexus?
