Aims and Scope
Constellations is an international
peer-reviewed journal committed to publishing the best of contemporary critical
and democratic theory.
More than a decade after the end of
the Cold War, we face a new set of political contradictions:
· an historic wave of
democratization is accompanied by a surge of uncontrolled economic globalization that threatens the democratic project;
· expanded possibilities
of wealth coexist with new forms of exclusion and impoverishment;
· new information
technologies enable a global communications community, yet science and
technology are co-opted for sectarian and destructive purposes; and
· nascent cosmopolitan
solidarities coexist with the preemptive unilateralism of a solitary superpower
and the surge of chauvinisms of every stripe.
In this context, longstanding
assumptions about critical theorizing- its methods, concepts and emancipatory
aims- need to be rethought. Constellations fosters creative thinking in
philosophy, politics, social theory, and law. The journal aims to help expand
the global possibilities for radical politics and social criticism in the
coming period.
