TOPIA - A Canadian Journal of Cultural Studies

An Academic Journal with a Unique Focus on Canadian and Cultural Studies
Cultural studies is one of the fastest growing areas of research, teaching
and publishing in the academic world. In recent years there has been a
proliferation of international conferences and journals devoted to this new
field. While there have been journals published to reflect the promising
intellectual scope of cultural studies, none has a specific emphasis on
Canadian research. At present, there is a shortage of venues within or
outside Canada for academics wishing to publish scholarly research on
Canadian culture and society.

TOPIA fills this gap by providing a Canadian context for scholarly exchange,
research and debate on culture.
While maintaining a strong Canadian orientation, TOPIA provides a venue for
current research and writing in the field of cultural studies.

TOPIA's editorial board is made up of over twenty scholars working across
disciplines from Canada, the U.S., Australia and Latin America.

TOPIA provides a dialogue among researchers in various countries who share
similar concerns with questions of culture, nationality, technologies and
the politics of space. TOPIA publishes historical and theoretical essays on
culture, accessible to a wide readership in the humanities and social
sciences, and is committed to publishing cultural and political debates,
book and conference reviews and cultural policy reports.

"TOPIA is one of the finest journals of cultural studies in the English
language and promises to be of immense value bringing Canadian perspectives
into the international academy." - Sean Cubitt, Liverpool

"TOPIA is the only Canadian journal specifically dedicated to publishing in
cultural studies. It provides a venue for Canadian scholars to publish,
share and debate the ideas that are important to us and to our many
cultures." - Dr Sheila Petty, Film and Video, University of Regina

"One of the truly valuable and exciting new journals in the field of
cultural studies ... a remarkable achievement." - Lawrence Grossberg, Morris
Davis Distinguished Professor of Communication Studies, University of North
Carolina

"As the only uniquely Canadian voice in the field, TOPIA's contribution and
potential impact is invaluable." - Dr Michael McConkey, Sociology, Saint
Mary's University
