Description
Critical Ethnic Studies explores the guiding question of the Critical Ethnic Studies Association: how do the histories of colonialism and conquest, racial chattel slavery, and white supremacist patriarchies and heteronormativities affect, inspire, and unsettle scholarship and activism in the present? By decentering the nation-state as a unit of inquiry, focusing on scholarship that expands the identity rhetoric of ethnic studies, engaging in productive dialogue with indigenous studies, and making critical studies of gender and sexuality guiding intellectual forces, this journal appeals to scholars interested in the methodologies, philosophies, and discoveries of this new intellectual formation.
Critical Ethnic Studies is now open access. Read the latest issues on Manifold.

Peer Review Process and Author Responsibilities
Peer Review Process
Peer review is critical to maintaining the standards of our publications. Peer review of manuscripts assists the editors in making editorial decisions. If a selected reviewer feels they are unqualified to review the research, they should exclude themselves from the review process. The reviewer should be a disinterested party with respect to the author(s) of the manuscript. Reviewers should have no conflict of interests which might include a personal relationships, close professional relationship, or prior co-authorship. Reviews should be conducted objectively. Personal criticism of the author is not appropriate. Reviews should point out relevant published work that is not yet cited in the piece. Reviewed articles will be treated confidentially prior to publication.
Please note that the scholarly peer review process applies to original research articles. Other genres of scholarly publication which regularly appear in scholarly journals such as book and media review submissions, political reviews, dialogue, editorial commentary, and resource pieces, among others, are not generally subject to peer review.

A manuscript can have more than one author. All others who have made a significant contribution to the manuscript but not in the above ways can be listed as co-authors.
Authors are obliged to participate in the peer review process. Authors should disclose any substantive conflicts of interest (including financial) that might impact the interpretation of the manuscript and work. Authors will provide a list of references if necessary.
