Critical Times publishes a variety of types of articles and interventions.

Scholarly Essays:
Scholarly essays are peer-reviewed articles that offer novel theoretical insights as they both engage with and work to redraw the boundaries of critical theory. Submissions should be no longer than 12,000 words, including an abstract of 100-150 words, endnotes, and a complete bibliography.

All scholarly essays are pre-reviewed by the journal’s senior, associate, and assistant editors. If the editors decide to move an article forward, it then undergoes double-blind peer review. The article is then read and discussed, together with the readers’ reports, by the full editorial team.

Emergences:
We also consider short essays, interviews, dispatches, and other forms of critical reflection, between 5,000 and 8,000 words, including an abstract. While still engaged in the project of critical theory, broadly defined, contributions to the journal’s “Emergences” section tend to be timely commentaries; they often respond to situations as they unfold or enter debates that remain ongoing. Our “Emergences” section also includes translations of previously published work that has not yet appeared in English. Contributions to the section are not peer reviewed but do undergo review by the senior, associate, and assistant editors of Critical Times as well as the other members of the journal’s editorial team.

Artistic Interventions:
Critical Times is proud to publish artistic contributions to all its issues. These are curated by our art editors, who commission artwork and collaborate with artists to feature work in Critical Times. Artistic Interventions are not peer-reviewed but undergo review by the Critical Times art editors.

Submission Information:
To submit manuscripts for consideration for publication, please visit https://mc04.manuscriptcentral.com/dup-crt.

To protect the anonymity of peer-reviewed content, authors should submit a separate cover page with the manuscript title and author names, affiliations, a short biographical note, and contact information. Authors should also remove their names and affiliations from the abstracts and manuscripts they submit.

Authors must be sure to acknowledge all sources. References should follow the notes and bibliography format in The Chicago Manual of Style, 18th edition, with short-form citations appearing in endnotes and pointing to a complete bibliography. Please see chapters 13 and 14 of The Chicago Manual of Style for more details.

Authors should submit all images and tables as separate files. Full guidelines about art preparation, including supplying alt text for all interior images, are part of Duke University Press’s submission guidelines.
