New FIFTH ESTATE Summer edition out

Anonyme, Mardi, Juillet 15, 2008 - 10:54

CALL FOR SUBMISSIONS FOR
FIFTH ESTATE #379, October 2008:
Issue theme: PLAY

Ten years ago, play as a revolutionary concept captured our imaginations when an infectious spirit of playful experimentation and exuberance animated the anarchist/underground milieu in the pre-Seattle period.

Riding this wild and playful energy, we were created seeds of an insurrectionary alternative reality that would one day replace or overthrow the dominant system. Back then, the physical, political, ideological, and imaginal spaces seemed to be opening to us.

Since then, we’ve suffered more than a few blows, considerably shrinking the climate of possibility in North America into a situation more conservative, defensive, fearful. Are we on the defensive, just fighting to hang on to whatever sense of validity we have, fighting to keep whatever ground we may have gained, or at least to cut our losses? Do sobering times require sober solutions, or is a renewed spirit of playful experimentation exactly what we need right now?

How do we make playful approach more useful or essential when confronting the system or exploring alternatives to it? How does the ethic, attitude, or practice of play inform, invigorate, animate, deepen, or become one with our
politics? What separates serious play from mere frivolity? How can we make “play” a deeper and wiser and more inclusive concept that ever before? How can, and how do, anti-authoritarians everywhere tap into and thrive on the
creative vitality of play?

In this spirit of experimentation, creativity, performance, spontaneity, transformation, exuberance, conviviality, and giddiness, we seek articles, accounts and artwork, fiction and non-fiction, on the theory and practice of play in all its forms, as well as essays, articles, and artwork on general themes.

Deadline for proposals: July 1

Je me demande si on peut considérer cela comme une publicité-infopub. Bien que ce magazine soit correct, il me semble que l'on a souvent beaucoup mieux à publier...

La partie plus pertinente est vers le bas, où on comprend que c'est une invitation aux contributions de militant.es progressistes contre le climat des politiques néoconservatrices...

C'est donc pertinent.

EDIT: MAIS j'ai retiré deux phrases publicitaires.

Ceci est un média alternatif de publication ouverte. Le collectif CMAQ, qui gère la validation des contributions sur le Indymedia-Québec, n'endosse aucunement les propos et ne juge pas de la véracité des informations. Ce sont les commentaires des Internautes, comme vous, qui servent à évaluer la qualité de l'information. Nous avons néanmoins une Politique éditoriale , qui essentiellement demande que les contributions portent sur une question d'émancipation et ne proviennent pas de médias commerciaux.

This is an alternative media using open publishing. The CMAQ collective, who validates the posts submitted on the Indymedia-Quebec, does not endorse in any way the opinions and statements and does not judge if the information is correct or true. The quality of the information is evaluated by the comments from Internet surfers, like yourself. We nonetheless have an Editorial Policy , which essentially requires that posts be related to questions of emancipation and does not come from a commercial media.
