Call for Papers 
	for volumes 9 and 10 of 
NST: Nature, Society, and Thoughta Journal of Dialectical and 
Historical Materialism


Nature, Society, and Thought was founded in 1987 as an 
interdisciplinary academic journal to provide a quarterly forum 
for the exploration of current ways of working in the 
intellectual tradition of dialectical and historical materialism. 
We welcome investigations of current theoretical and ideological 
issues in Marxist theory and we seek creative applications of 
related methods to all fields of study. We also welcome 
contributions not explicitly employing these concepts or language 
if the content or subject matter is in an area of particular 
interest to our readers (African American and feminist studies, 
philosophy of science, current left and progressive politics, for 
example).

NST is presently catching up on its publication schedule, closing 
the gap between cover date and actual publication date, and is 
coming out approximately every two months. We have been using up 
our backlog of accepted papers, therefore, and need more. Rapid 
turnaround is assured!

NST is a refereed academic article, and all submissions are 
reviewed by at least two readers with expertise in the subject 
and/or Marxist theory. Normal length of articles is between 3,000 
and 10,000 words, and standard scholarly documentation is 
expected.

Book reviews (750 to 1000 words) are also published, as well as 
longer essay-reviews discussing several books. Anyone interested 
in writing such reviews should write NST giving the titles 
proposed. (We can usually provide copies.)

Submissions should be made in triplicate, double-spaced (on 
diskette if accepted). Manuscripts should follow the MEP 
Publications Documentation Style Guide, which appears in vol. 7, 
no. 1. Request a copy of the Style Guide or a sample issue of NST 
today.
