Volume 30, Issue 1: Shakespeare and War
In its current incarnation, Critical Survey is now thirty years old. The first of four issues in its volume, this special issue serves as a reminder of the journal’s founding principles: clarity of exposition; relevance to the curriculum; recognition given to emerging fields of study; and the potential to blend critical with creative voices. This issue concludes with book reviews and poetry.

Volume 51, Issue 1: Rabbi Lionel Blue z’l Memorial Issue
The memoirs and tributes to Lionel Blue z’l in this issue of European Judaism reflect the many dimensions of his life and work, yet a common thread runs through them. All who have written testify to his warmth and generosity of spirit, the support and advice that was always readily available, his openness to people of all kinds and persuasions.

Volume 2018, Issue 80: The political in/of Europe
This themed issue of Focaal first introduces the vantage points of critical scholarship that distinguishes itself from the mainstream, and people and places that are geopolitically in Europe, but “not quite” European if viewed in relation to “Europe” as a normative trope. It follows with topics ranging from deindustrialized Latvian countryside to the militarization of US social science in such initiatives as Project Camelot.

The articles in this issue of French Politics, Culture & Society range from the affective politics of French romantic socialism to the relationship between history and memory in the comic form. The spatial and temporal conceptions of Algerian historical memory are explored, and issues of settler identity formation, anticlericalism, and racism are examined.

Volume 11, Issue 1: Locating Tween Girls
The articles in this special issue, titled “Locating Tween Girls,” locate age more centrally in girlhood discourses that intersect with geography, technology, class, race, sex, gender, and sexuality. They do so through a variety of methods and tools: a collection of qualitative data on the uses of media, an analysis of middle-grade novels about black girls and nonconforming tweens, all to expand on crucial areas in the study of tweenhood.

Volume 13, Issue 1: Civil Society and Urban Agriculture in Europe
This special issue of Nature and Culture comprises articles by social and environmental scientists.

Volume 65, Issue 154
The articles in this issue of Theoria: A Journal of Social and Political Theory range from a reevaluation of John Rawls’ distinction between ideal and nonideal theory, and an analysis of a comprehensive university-wide democracy at the University of Witwatersrand. Two major orientations of cosmopolitanism are examined, and the defining feature of academic excellence is disputed.

Volume 8, Issue 1
This special section on “Degendering the Driver” explores how gender intervenes in the potential shift from a driver-centered to a driverless car culture. It focuses on representations of imagined futures-prototypes, media images, and popular discourses of driverless cars. This section is followed by Ideas in Motion, Mobility in Art, and various reviews. This issue marks the first under Dagmar Schäfer’s editorship.
