We regularly solicit, accept pitches, and accept entire MS submissions for the DDGC Blog. Blog articles should in some fashion address the collective's Guiding Principles and will undergo a review process by the blog editors.
A longstanding series is the "Why do ____ German Studies Matter Now?" series. Contributors in this series have offered critical insights about the relevance of, for instance, Black German Studies, Queer German Studies, or 18th-Century Studies for our current moment and the futures unfolding ahead of us. We regularly welcome submissions or pitches to this series. We especially hope to amplify the research and perspectives of graduate students, contingent faculty, and faculty at any stage of their career who belong to a historically and structurally marginalized community in the academy.
Submissions have typically ranged from 500-2000 words. However, some ideas cannot be standardized and require less or more space. We would very much like to work with authors or author collectives and are glad to give you the space you require to develop your ideas. Entries follow MLA citation system with a works cited list at the end of the document. Submissions in word document are much appreciated. We use a standard image to accompany each blog post; however, if you would like to use your own visuals, please send them along and make sure they are cleared for public domain usage. We are as excited about individual contributions as we are about collaborative contributions. We welcome anonymous posts as well.
Send submissions, pitches, general inquiries to both blog editors: Regine Criser (rcriser[at]unca.edu) and Ervin Malakaj (ervin.malakaj[at]ubc.ca).
