A special issue on historic utopias, nostalgic speculations, 
neo-traditions, modern primitives, archaic science fictions, 
being/becoming, new urbanism, invented traditions, primitivism, 
futurism, retro fashion, futurology, back to basics, neo-paganism,

Abstracts by November 15th, 2003.  Papers by January 15th, 2004 

We at Rhizomes oppose the idea that knowledge must grow in a tree 
structure from previously accepted ideas. New thinking need not follow 
established patterns. 

Rhizomes promotes experimental work located outside current disciplines, 
work that has no proper location. As our name suggests, works written in 
the spirit of Deleuzian approaches are welcomed but not required. 

We are not interested in publishing texts that establish their authority 
merely by affirming what is already believed. Instead, we encourage 
migrations into new conceptual territories resulting from unpredictable 
juxtapositions.
