Forthcoming Series: Gaming Ecologies in Practice

 

Series Editors: Sandra Schamroth Abrams, University of South Africa and University of Sheffield, and Hannah R. Gerber, Sam Houston State University and University of South Africa

This practice-based series is designed to showcase when, where, how, and why digital and nondigital games are integrated into formal and informal environments across a variety of disciplines (e.g., libraries, museums, businesses, non-governmental organizations, and formal schooling). More specifically, contributions to the series include, but are not limited to, socially responsive, transdisciplinary, and innovative applications of social, cultural, and technological practices related to digital and nondigital games or game-informed activities in a variety of environments. Given the emerging and evolving role of artificial intelligence (AI), contributions likely will include a focus on AI in such practices. Furthermore, contributors to Gaming Ecologies in Application will situate their work in theories and/or policies and include suggestions for future research and applications.

We invite scholars to submit proposals that offer exemplars of gaming in situ and/or across various cultural milieu, including instances when best intentions have gone awry and reflections on improved practices. Our hope is for readers to become inspired by the contributions and build on how digital or nondigital gaming can be used to enhance multiple practices as showcased in this series.

The Gaming Ecologies in Practice subseries includes work from a variety of disciplines, including, but not limited to, sociology, anthropology, history, cultural studies, human computer interaction, communication studies, computer sciences, business, education, literacy, and linguistics. In short, the series features work that engages discussions about gaming in one or more of the social sciences.

Manuscripts should be a minimum of 40,000 words in length, inclusive of footnotes and bibliography, and may incorporate illustrations or other visual materials. Monographs and edited volumes are welcome, and innovative approaches are encouraged. Submissions must be written in English and should conform to APA 7 guidelines and standards.

Authors are cordially invited to submit their proposals and/or full manuscripts to Series Editors Sandra Schamroth Abrams and Hannah R. Gerber, or to Acquisitions Editor Simona Casadio. Please direct all other correspondence to Associate Editor Emilia Stark.

Authors will find general proposal guidelines at the Brill Author Gateway.
