Choreographic Practices explores the expanded field of choreography. The journal emphasizes processes and practices over products, and is focused on work at the borders and edges of what is known, understood or assumed. We publish essays, documentation, blogs in print, visual essays, dialogues, interviews and debate, and welcome submissions throughout the year.

We also offer three different types of peer-review depending on the needs of the author: open peer-review, collaborative peer-review and traditional double-blind peer-review. Full submission guidelines are available at https://www.intellectbooks.com/choreographic-practices#call-for-papers.

General Call for Papers 

All articles submitted should be original work and must not be under consideration by other publications.

Choreographic Practices welcomes submissions throughout the academic year. Contributions are invited to explore choreographic practices from a diverse range of perspectives. We are especially interested in receiving critical/creative practice-led research that is interdisciplinary and experimental in nature.

Topics might include:
Choreographic methodologies and practices
Dance and interdisciplinary
Theatre, screen, sited or social movement practices
Improvisation processes
Dance and documentation
Choreography as social, cultural and/or psychological concern

Choreographic Practices incorporates critical essays, creative documentation, blogs in print, visual essays, dialogues, interviews and debate. We encourage submissions in both conventional and alternative modes of writing, including performative and visual essays.

Submission of an article to the journal will be taken to imply that it presents original, unpublished work not under consideration for publication elsewhere. By submitting a manuscript, the authors agree that the exclusive rights to reproduce and distribute the article have been given to the publishers.

Types of Review

Choreographic Practices (CHOR) offers three different types of external peer-review processes. It is up to the author to decide which process best suits their needs, but the CHOR editors are happy to help if required. The process chosen will be noted at the top of each article.
 
  1. Open peer-review follows a traditional peer-review process except that the author(s) and the reader-reviewers are openly named. The writing is not anonymized. For this process, the editors ensure there are no potential conflicts of interest, and the reader-reviewers can decide whether or not to be named in the publication.
  2. Collaborative peer-review is where the author(s) and a reviewer-collaborator enter a dialogue to help develop the writing towards publication. CHOR's editorial team will be responsible for choosing an appropriately experienced reviewer-collaborator, and this person can be more or less involved depending on the collaboration. For this process, the reviewer-collaborator can decide whether or not to be named at the time of publication, although we would expect most to agree to this. The extent or depth of the dialogue or collaboration would determine the way in which the reviewer-collaborator is acknowledged. 
  3. Traditional double blind peer-review is where the author(s) and reader-reviewers remain unknown or 'blind' to each other. The writing is anonymized and the author receives anonymous responses from the reviewers via the CHOR editorial team.
