Announcement
In the framework of its 40th anniversary, the editorial board of the Revue Européenne des Migrations Internationales (https://journals.openedition.org/remi) organizes a call for contributions for its portfolio section. The competition addresses young doctoral researchers and post-doctoral researchers in the fields of Social Sciences in France and abroad. Proposals may lean towards:
- Decentering our theoretical and methodological views to new topics and objects of research not much covered before.
- Proposing the provenance of objects, notions, concepts, or all of the above to show the conditions of their emergence and evolution, along with how they fit into given contexts.
A jury composed of the editorial board and the journal’s network members will select three proposals to publish in the anniversary issue (Vol. 40-2&3 - 2025). Texts should be between 10,000 and 20,000 characters long (including spaces) and will be placed around visual proposals such as photographs, drawings, plans, maps, cartoons, etc.
Argumentation
A growing body of social science research now incorporates the production of photographs and drawings into its methodology and, in many works of research, critical analysis draws on corpora of images. The aim of this section is to provide a view of migrants, migration and migratory configurations by offering REMI readers portfolios of iconographic proposals (photographs, drawings, plans, etc.) produced as part of field research.
The authors will position themselves within a broad spectrum, in which images can be used to support an approach linking visual sociology with sociology of the gaze (as suggested by Emmanuel Garrigues). The images can also be a mode of anthropological (Albert Piette) or geographical knowledge.
As a reminder, portfolios can be in French, English or Spanish. They should include an introduction and a maximum of eight photographs, free of copyright, with detailed captions and should respect the journal’s technical requirements (https://journals.openedition.org/remi/5849) and https://journals.openedition.org/remi/5849#tocfrom3n11). The target length is 10,000-20,000 characters including spaces. The introduction should provide the context of the production of the images and explain how the use of photography adds to the production of knowledge. Portfolios should follow the same presentation guidelines as articles in the journal (https://journals.openedition.org/remi/5849). Proposed contributions should be sent by email to the REMI editorial team (remi[at]univ-poitiers.fr). They should be unpublished. Decisions on publication (acceptance, suggestions for improvements and changes, or rejection) will be notified before 1st April 2024. In accordance with established practice for academic journals, authors undertake not to submit their text to other journals while it is under consideration by the REMI editorial team.
Submission Modalities
Proposals for articles could be in French, English or Spanish and should include the author’s affiliation, a title and an abstract of 2,000 characters (spaces included). They may come from different disciplines of social sciences and should be sent to remi[at]univ-poitiers.fr
before 15 March 2024.
The accepted articles could be in French, English or Spanish.
