West Virginia University Press is currently seeking proposals for its book series, Borderless. Oriented toward social justice and social transformation, the Borderless series will publish monographs and collections that cross disciplinary boundaries and blend social science and humanities methodologies. Books in the series will serve educators, students, activists, and policymakers and propose solutions to racial, gender, sexual, and ethnic oppression through coalitional politics. By offering a better understanding of the precarious situations of vulnerable populations and by making connections between geographically separated communities and struggles for liberation, these counternarratives and new interpretations of colonization, genocidal violence, and marginalization will provide innovative ways to think about action-oriented social justice research that is community centered and community driven. The editors and editorial board seek book-length manuscripts focused on finding interdisciplinary solutions to global injustice, connecting communities of resistance, and forming coalition and solidarity.
