Hi all-
We would really be interested in postcolonial perspectives on web access. 

Best, Jennifer 

>Currents in Electronic Literacy (ISSN 1524-6493) is now accepting submissions
>for its Spring 2003 issue, "Whose Web Is It Anyway?" Completed articles for
>this issue are due February 15, 2003.
>
>The surge in the use of technology and the Internet in education and in
society
>more generally raises a number of questions, both for those who use these
>technologies and those who do not. Among these questions are:
>
>* How does the Internet limit or offer new possibilities for various
groups of
>people, including those with low incomes, those with disabilities, or others?
>
>* How visible are race and gender on the Web?
>
>* What relationship exists between globalization and the use and spread of
new
>information technologies?
>
>* What role does technology play in cultural memory and cultural literacy?
>
>This is by no means an exhaustive list of the questions that interest us;
>Currents welcomes articles that address these and other questions from a
>literary, critical, theoretical, aesthetic, rhetorical, practical or
>pedagogical standpoint.
>
>While our focus for the Spring 2003 issue will be these issues, we also
welcome
>submissions on any aspect of electronic literacy for this issue.
>
