CFP: IN THEORY (Popular Culture) - New Magazine
IN THEORY is a new magazine aiming to bring the best of cultural studies to a diverse non-academic audience. We feature short commentary on texts and practices specific to contemporary popular culture: advertisements, films, fashion trends, television shows,
celebrity scandals, web memes, food packaging, greeting cards, advice columns, etc. Articles should borrow from semiotics, psychoanalysis, queer theory, narratology, and other academic disciplines associated with cultural studies and critical theory, while remaining accessible
to a general audience. Ideally, articles should surprise and entertain, presenting smart, pithy analysis of familiar subject matter.
We’re currently seeking submissions no longer than 2,500 words. Pay ranges between $100 and $500. Article submissions should be preceded by a short pitch and bio, sent via email to
submissions@theorymag.com. For more information, including our mission statement and an extended list of possible topics, please contact Nathalie@theorymag.com.
