Re. Phil's message. I tried the URL, and it didn't work for me. The above
URL does get you to the call for papers by disClosure, a journal of social
theory, on "the Child". Now I know where to send my "I don't believe in
development paper". Thanks Phil!

>>This issue will address a broad range of issues relating to the category of
>>childhood. We seek to explore the construction and experience of childhood
>>-- past, present, and future. Contributions from an array of theoretical
>>perspectives are welcome, including but not limited to psychoanalysis,
>>feminism, post-structuralism, critical theory, Marxism, post-colonialism,
>>and queer theory.
>>
>>Possible topics and questions for consideration:
>>* The use of the category "child" or "children" in the construction of
>>consumer discourses (e.g. "child-safe") political discourses (e.g. the
>>rights of children, the "childrenization" of poverty) and legal discourses
>>(e.g. child labor laws).
>>* The regulation of childhood through education, medicalization, the
>>judicial system, and consumption.
>>* Children's media (e.g. cartoons, fairytales and children's books, video
>>games) and the construction of childhood.
>>* The politics and policies of reproduction (e.g. zero-growth, genetic
>>engineering, gender selection, birth control, adoption, pre-natal care,
>>category of childhood).
>>* Violence by/toward children.
>>* Growth and development (e.g. rites of passage, adolescence, puberty,
>>sexuality, body image).
>>* Disciplining children (e.g. spankings, naughtiness, beauty pageants,
>>proper behavior, potty training).
>>* Questions of the family (e.g. the construction of parents, family
>>values).
>>* Kids and technology.
>>* Kids and play (e.g. recess, toys, Barbie culture, hobbies, sports).
>>* The end of childhood / the end of innocence.
>>
>>SUBMISSION DEADLINE: February 15, 2000
