   CALL FOR PAPERS   ***   CALL FOR PAPERS    ***    CALL FOR PAPERS

In the spring of 1993 the journal

   SOCIALIST STUDIES / ETUDES SOCIALISTES: A CANADIAN ANNUAL

will publish a special issue, devoted to the

           RED-GREEN DEBATE  -  CHALLENGES AND RESPONSES

for which a Winnipeg-based editorial collective, chaired
by Ross Dobson, invites proposals.

Like the Reds, the Greens are a movement -- and a politics -- of
dissent, reform, re-construction and transformation. In Europe, the
Red-Green debate has been more co-operative than competitive; in
North America, the opposite held.

This Annual will address the following: The history of the Green
movement and of Green politics; their connection with socialism;
the relationship of both to feminism and the peace movement.

Issues
may be discussed in such broad areas as:

  - Humanity & nature: comparative views of the relationship between
nature and society --
            anthropocentric/biocentric
  - Philosophy & religion: comparative world-views, spiritual values &
materialism
  - Ethics: relationship of people to people and to the earth --
stewardship/resourcism
  - Morality: domination or co-operation -- feminist/patriarchal
  - Economic life: economic development -- sustainable/exploitative
  - Economic institutions: practices & purposes of trade -- advantage/need
  - Politics: nature, scope & limits of democracy --
      representative/participatory
  - Political activism: the meaningful locus of politics --
nation/municipality
  - Institutions of governance: the New World Order
    global management / local control
  - Any other topic on the commonalities of and differences between the
Red and Green movements.
