THEORIA: A Journal of Critical Studies in the Arts, Humanities and Social Sciences May 1995: Number 85: Markets, States and Justice pp.166 Based in South Africa, Theoria is a multidisciplinary journal of engaged theoretical reflection in the arts, humanities and social sciences. Its purpose is to address, through scholarly debates, the many challenges posed to intellectual life by the major social, political and economic forces that configure the contemporary world. It is principally concerned with questions such as how modern systems of power, processes of globalization and economic organization bear on matters such as justice, democracy, truth and identity, under conditions both of advanced modernity and of uneven modernization in the `developing' world.

Theoria 87, May 1996: REASON, THEORY and HISTORY: Call for papers: The claims that history can be "rationally reconstructed" and that it has some kind of "logic" or "direction" to it are clearly controversial. Are these claims in any way sustainable? What purpose, if any, might be served through the study of history? How might it properly be grasped and with what implications? What are the challenges that face history and historiography as we approach the end of the twentieth century? In what ways might history be abused, and what, if anything, does it mean to speak coherently of a "philosophy of history"? These, among many others, are the issues that Theoria #87 will address.
