CFP: proposed edited collection

REMOTE RELATIONSHIPS IN A SMALL WORLD

We are seeking contributions for this proposed edited collection. Rather than producing more speculative work, we wish to focus on
empirical data collected online about the intricate, intimate virtual ways that people forge connections. The three sections will
be: Love & Sex; Work & Education; and Methods & Ethics. Chapters should be empirically based, 8000 words in length, and written in
an accessible style suitable for an interested, intelligent general audience as well as for an academic readership in
gender/cultural/media studies, sociology/anthropology, and new media.

Deadline for abstracts Friday May 8th.
Deadline for completed chapters February 14th 2006.

Please send abstracts of up to 250 words (attached as a .doc or .rtf file) and including a brief bio or CV to:
