<span style=" font-family:'Arial'; font-size: 12pt;">Dear colleagues,<br>
please take note of the CFP below, and feel free to forward it. The second part of the book, to which this CFP refers, contains peer-reviewed articles on contemporary Korea (North and South). It is not easy to get a proposal accepted in this two-stage process but certainly worth the effort, as this is the fifth annual volume in a series that is widely read and recognized.<br>
Please send proposals to Prof. Koellner, not to me.<br>
Best regards,<br>
Rudiger Frank<br>
