Contribute/Evaluation

From The Dictionary of Radical Alternatives

The evaluation process varies depending on the type of contribution.

Concepts

Concept submissions should provide a brief overview of the concept, including its meaning, origins, and relevance to radical alternatives. Concept overviews are not attributed to individual authors. Rather, they are conceived as collective and evolving entries that may be revised as new definitions, perspectives, and contributions are added to the Dictionary. You can find out more here: Contribute/Concept

Definitions

Definitions are authored contributions that offer a particular interpretation, perspective, or account of a concept. Each submission is reviewed internally by at least two members of the Dictionary Working Group.

Definitions should follow the general guidelines provided here: Contribute/Definition

Following this initial review, we return the submission to the author with comments and suggested revisions. Authors may then incorporate this feedback before the definition is prepared for publication.

Illustrations

Illustrations are open to a wide range of forms, styles, and approaches. We welcome creative interpretations of the concepts included in the Dictionary and are happy to discuss any questions, suggestions, or possible revisions directly with illustrators and artists during the process. You can find out more here: Contribute/Illustration

Translations

Translations are also reviewed by a member of the Working Group whenever possible. When none of our members is sufficiently familiar with the language of the submission, we may ask the translator or author to suggest an additional person who could help us review the translation if possible.

Please follow the specific instructions provided for each type of contribution: Contribute/Translation

All submissions are evaulated by the Dictionary Working Group of the Global Tapestry of Alternatives.

If you have any questions or would like to discuss a possible contribution before submitting it, please do not hesitate to contact us at contact@dictionaryofradicalalternatives.org
