Open Call For Submissions:
Una Mens - Issue 2
A Note from the Editors
Disciplines teach us how to see. They also shape what we overlook.
Una Mens welcomes original submissions from any field. For Issue 2, we are especially interested in work that stays grounded in its own disciplinary home while becoming more legible across neighboring fields, methods, or forms of collaboration.
We are not asking authors to abandon expertise, manufacture consensus, or become fluent in every neighboring tradition. We are interested in the encounter itself:
What changed when another perspective entered the inquiry?
What resisted translation?
What became newly visible?
What remained productively unresolved?
Depth matters. So does permeability.
Selected works will appear in Issue 2 of Una Mens: Homo et Machina, scheduled for winter 2026–2027.
Questions or early inquiries are welcome:
Michael Miller, Editor
What We Welcome
We welcome empirical, theoretical, methodological, reflective, artistic, and hybrid contributions. Possible formats include short essays, research papers, dialogues, interviews, visual scholarship, field notes, methodological reflections, and experimental forms. Submissions may be human-authored, human–AI collaborative, or centered on AI-generated or AI-mediated work. All contributions should disclose authorship and collaborative process clearly.
Submission Deadline
October 30, 2026
Current Editorial Invitations
This cycle, we are especially interested in work that:
-
places different paradigms beside the same problem
-
shows how another field altered a question, method, or conclusion
-
examines human–AI collaboration, repair, resistance, or refusal
-
identifies what a disciplinary lens reveals — and what it obscures
-
examines how a field, institution, or social practice shapes what counts as evidence
-
documents a disagreement that became more precise
-
invites an unfamiliar idea into an established practice
-
explores work that does not fit comfortably within one academic category
These are invitations, not requirements.
