> “Pedagogical Perspectives on Race, Class, and Gender in Community Development”
>
> The Journal of Public Affairs Education announces a special symposium
> on “Pedagogical Perspectives on Race, Class and Gender in Community
> Development.”
>
> It has long been established within the field of community
> development, in addition to other academic disciplines, that the
> historical development of power relations within local communities
> tends to have a disparate impact on racial and ethnic minorities,
> women, and other individuals that are part of the ‘underclass’, which
> subsequently results, at least rhetorically, in the necessity for
> broader social responses of community development. Since community
> development usually attempts to build agency and capacity among these
> historically neglected groups, it raises the questions: how are
> community development practitioners and academics trained to work with
> these disadvantaged groups in order to yield more successful community
> development outcomes? And, what are the best practices for integrating
> race, class, and gender into community development coursework?
>
> This symposium seeks to bring together an interdisciplinary group of
> authors to write on the importance of integrating race, class, and
> gender into college coursework and practitioner training programs in
> community development, in addition to pedagogical methods for this
> integration.
>
> Potential papers may consider, but are not limited to, the following topics:
>
> • Empirical analyses, including case studies, of the intercultural
> competence of community development practitioners and the need for
> training;
>
> • The role of higher education- in terms of student preparation/
> engagement/ collaboration- in community development practice and/or
> theory;
>
> • Pedagogical tools and examples that can be used in the classroom to
> foster cultural competency; and
>
> • Discussions on the merits and challenges of community-based research
> versus traditional research in terms of community development and
> student learning.
>
> Papers can either focus exclusively on race, class, or gender or on
> the intersections of race, class and gender in the context of
> education and training for community development practitioners and/or
> researchers.
>
> Guest editors for this symposium are Ashley E. Nickels, Rutgers
> University-Camden, and Jason D. Rivera, Rutgers University-Camden.
>
> The deadline for manuscripts is March 31, 2014. Contributing authors
> will receive notification of tentative acceptance to the symposium
> from the editors by April 15, 2014, at which time tentatively accepted
> manuscripts will be sent out for peer review. The symposium is
> scheduled for publication in May 2015. All submissions should be
> emailed to the guest editors, Ashley Nickels
> (
aen42@scarletmail.rutgers.edu) and Jason Rivera
> (jason.rivera8472@gmail.com) as a Word or PDF attachment. Please
> include “JPAE submission” in the Subject line.
>
> Manuscripts should not exceed 30 double spaced pages including
> references. For information about the Journal of Public Affairs
> Education, in addition to style and format guidelines please refer to
http://www.naspaa.org/initiatives/jpae/jae.asp.
>

> Inquiries about the review process or about a particular manuscript
> should be directed to a guest editor, Ashley Nickels or Jason Rivera.
