PMC: Essays Currently Available for Peer Review
 
Self-nominated peer-reviewers regularly participate in the
editorial process of _Postmodern Culture_.  All submissions
distributed for review have been screened by the editors and will
receive two other readings from members of the journal's
permanent editorial board; _Postmodern Culture_ preserves the
anonymity of both authors and reviewers in this process, but the
comments of reviewers will be forwarded to the author.
 
If you would like to review one of the submissions described
below, and if you think you can complete that review within two
weeks of receiving the essay, please send a note to the editors at
[log in to unmask] outlining your qualifications
as a reviewer of the work in question (experience in the subject
area, publications, interest), identifying the MS by number as
listed below, and specifying the manner in which you would like
to receive the essay (electronic mail or World-Wide Web).
We will select one self-nominated reviewer for each of the works
listed below, and we will notify reviewers within two weeks.
 
Information gathered during this process about potential reviewers
will be kept on file at PMC for future reference, and may be made
available for online searching by PMC subscribers seeking
expertise in a particular field.  Please note: members of the
journal's permanent editorial board should not nominate themselves
in response to this call.
