Cultura21 Germany : Webmagazine
The Web Magazine of Cultura21 Germany was relaunched in October 2009!
The magazine has a special section with articles in English: Visit http://magazin.cultura21.de/english
We are looking for authors!
Articles in English for the magazine are welcome!
Guidelines
An article should be in between 1 and 4 pages long.
It should contain: - Topic (max. 2 words) - A good title for a webmagazine (more journalistic than scientific) - Author (first name and family name, city, email-address, two/three biographical lines, evtl. Website) - Teaser (max. 5 lines, that introduce the article and attract the potential readers) - Text of the articles - wished keywords - evtl. links and digital photos (for which you have copyrights, or which are rights-free)
The style/perspective of the article: - for a wider more popular, but intellectual audience - critical, unconventional and creative, but with a qualitative demand (Anspruch) - interdisciplinary and intercultural
Possible topics: - articles about a personal experience or a personal opinion about a current topic - scientific analysis - best practices - article on perspectives for the future
Editorial review
We will review articles both in terms of content-quality, relevance for the magazine and English language, and eventually propose editorial modifications to authors.
Once you have submitted an article, it will be reviewed by the editorial teams, eventual suggestions of modifications will be submitted to you, and finally, accepted articles will be published on the website’s English section. In case the topic of your article fits with the next upcoming “dossier”, the article will be published at the same time as the “dossier” (i.e. with a few weeks or months delay).
For reviewing the received English-language articles, an English-speaking editorial team has been constituted. Its members are: Hans Dieleman, David Haley, Sacha Kagan, Caffyn Kelley, Oleg Koefoed, Aviva Rahmani.
The final review (mainly a formal editorial check) for the publication of all articles will remain in the hands of the German editorial team (responsible for the overall Web Magazine) to which we will submit the articles after our review, i.e. Davide Brocchi, Hans Hübner, Thomas Schmeckpeper and Maraike Wenzel.
Conditions
Please note that the web-magazine is a pure “gift economy”, i.e. there won’t be any payment in case you send an article.
Where to submit my article?
You can submit your article by email (in either an Open Office or Microsoft Word “.doc” -not “.docx”!) directly to Sacha Kagan:
