Liminal spaces are often associated with a state of transition; permanence and finality are frequently seen as a mirage from such a space. However, this space entices one to keep going - enjoy as well as endure the process before they attain their final stop. Indeed, this path may present extreme ends of the spectrum for the one travelling, however it is the journey that matters after all. Liminality often extends its spatial extents to marginality and departures, both of which can be seen from a positive and negative aspect. While spaces can be physical, experiences encapsulated through marginality and transitions are non-physical and poetic. Thus, we call for creative pieces based on this year's theme of liminal spaces, extending to topics such as marginality, transition and departure.

Read More Read more about Call for Book ReviewersThe term liminality encapsulates a state of transition wherein new ideas, identities, solidarities can come into being. As a concept it thus offers a crucial prism through which any in-between phase for a person, group, or even for a whole society can be better understood and has today gained increasing use within the humanities, social sciences and beyond.
In the current day and age, liminal spaces permeate the essence of uncertainties and marginalities. This space can be occupied by those in stasis, which represents detachment and departure from expectations borne of stability towards the marginal spaces of uncertainty, fluidity, and the suspended potentiality of the unknown.
Thus, we call for papers based on the theme of liminal spaces, marginality, transitions and departures.
