Call for Contributors to the Encyclopedia of American Poverty, which is a complete overview of the causes, consequences, and characteristics of poverty over the course of American history, with a special emphasis on contemporary poverty. The Encyclopedia, encompassed in one volume totaling approximately 125,000 words, is divided into thematic and chronological sections. Each section includes general essays of 2,000-3,000 words each that provide an overview of historical development and contemporary conditions of the personalities, politics, economics, and theories of poverty. Entries of 500-1500 words, ordered alphabetically, describe particular groups, people, institutions, and events. The Encyclopedia is edited by Russell Lawson, Ph.D. and will be published by Greenwood Publishing. Contributors receive a modest honorarium. Email Russell Lawson for a headword list and details.
