Kaleidoscope:
a
graduate journal of qualitative communication research
Editorial Review Process/Copyright
& Permissions
We welcome manuscripts, during the submission period, from graduate
students in Communication Studies and cognate disciplines/areas who
are currently enrolled at the time of submission. Each manuscript
submitted to Kaleidoscope will receive a blind assessment
by two outside reviewers, (1) a faculty member and (2) an
advanced Ph.D. student. By blind,
we mean that authors always remain anonymous, but that reviewers have the
option of remaining anonymous or disclosing their identity to the author
via the Editor. Reviewers
are drawn primarily from across the Communication Studies
discipline and include those whose work and interests include
qualitative, interpretive, and critical/cultural theory and method.
The Editor makes final decisions concerning the publication of any
work submitted.
Please submit 3 copies of your
manuscript. Manuscripts submitted to Kaleidoscope
must not be under review elsewhere or have appeared in any other published
form. Although there is
no minimum page limit, manuscripts should be no longer than
25 pages (double-spaced) or 7,000 words (including notes and references),
and can be prepared following MLA, APA, or Chicago style. Manuscripts
should include an abstract of no more than 150 words and have a
detached title page listing the title, your name, institutional affiliation,
address, phone number, and email address. If your manuscript is
accepted for publication, you will be asked to resubmit an electronic
version of your manuscript (with necessary revisions, if applicable).
