Issue #108: "Enclosures"
Issue Editors: Amy Chazkel and David Serlin
The Radical History Review seeks submissions for an issue dedicated to the theme of "Enclosures": a term that refers to the twin phenomenon of proprietary demarcation and dispossession that has accompanied the global transition to industrial capitalism in cities and rural areas alike. In a variety of geographical and chronological contexts, this issue will explore both the symbolic and the literal, material senses of the historical process of enclosure.
