Argument
Clara launches a call for papers for its Archives section as well as for its new Position(s) section. This is an open call, which means authors can submit at any time. For their paper to be included in forthcoming issue 12 (2026), authors are however invited to submit their abstract by January 12th 2025.
Clara is a peer-reviewed scholarly journal in architecture dedicated to topics, research methods and tools specific to the field. Each issue comprises a main thematic section with its own call for papers, and two additional sections with Archives and Position(s) articles.
Articles in the section Archives are dedicated to the exploration, valorization and/or problematization of an archive. We invite the articles in this section to investigate little-known archival resources, shed light on the genesis of architectural projects documented therein, and address the new challenges faced by contemporary archival collections (preservation, digitization, decoloni- zation, etc.). The articles in this section are limited to a maximum of 50,000 characters or 8,000 words (including spaces, notes, bibliography, and captions). They are subject to a double-blind peer review process, which aims at verifying their originality, appropriateness of the adopted research methods, the relevance of their argument and conclusions, their structure and readability.
The section Position(s) gathers short articles that take a stand on current events in the field of architecture. Contributions can take the form of a manifesto, a book review, an exhibition report, or give an account of an educational experience. The format is limited to a maximum of 25,000 characters or 4,000 words (including spaces, notes, bibliography, and captions). Articles in the section Position(s) are not double-blind peer reviewed but evaluated by Clara’s editorial board.
Submission guidelines
To submit a proposal for Clara’s Archives or Position(s) sections, researchers are invited to send an abstract (400 words) and a short resume to Clara’s editorial board: clara.archi[at]ulb.be.
