As of October 17, a new editorial team has begun to work on the second issue of aspeers, Europe’s first—and currently only—graduate-level peer-reviewed journal for American Studies. Between now and the Spring of 2009, Tanja Aho, Ingrid Betz, Franziska Böhme, Susan Büttner, Sebastian M. Herrmann, Benedikt Schäfer, and Isabel Simão will work to edit the second issue of the journal, the first to be organized around a topical call for papers.

If you are a student in an MA program (or equivalent) of a European university, you may still submit your work to have it considered for publication. The deadline for academic contributions is Oct 31.
