Journal for Cultural Studies

《KWZ》由2015年成立的KWG出版，于2016年出版。到目前为止，已经出版了一期创始问题，目前正在编写另一期(2017年1月)。该杂志的目的是通过从广泛的文化研究领域发表高质量的德语和英语论文来促进文化研究研究。对历史和当前现象的典型分析，以及重建和启动紧迫的理论问题，是该期刊的主题，有望推动文化研究领域的研究。除了论文、评论和会议报告外，每一期都包含一位著名的文化研究研究员关于当今专门的争议和主题的方案嘉宾贡献。供出版的语言有德语和英语。《德国文化评论报》的论文经历了一次双盲审查。KWZ每年出版两次，由de Gruyter出版社在线出版(开放获取)。KWZ似乎是KWG的出版机构，目的是加强关于文化研究问题、理论方法和没有专题说明的概念的辩论。在与国际科学论著进行学术交流时，应使用国际引进的理论来批判性地审视自己的理论传统。KWZ将自己理解为跨学科交流的论坛。该杂志在方法和内容方面的愿望是将自己确立为德语科学界文化研究讨论的中心出版物。KWZ为自己设定的任务是元反射地伴随着文化研究领域中话语和方法论的趋势的出现，并将它们与各自现有的传统联系起来。杂志欢迎各个学科的不同观点，但它们被纳入一个多视角的讨论背景中。KWZ批判性地质疑本质主义和普遍主义的文化概念；其基本概念始于文化在谈判中发展的前提--剧本、信念和行动。作为一个永久性翻译过程的集合体，对文化的学术分析需要一种跨国跨文化的方法。由于KWZ致力于此，该杂志的重建有助于更好地了解行动/实践的文化语法和技术条件，以及社会变化的秩序和动态。

The Kulturwissenschaftliche Zeitschrift (KWZ) is published since 2016 by the Kulturwissenschaftlichen Gesellschaft (KWG) founded in 2015. Thus far, a founding issue was published and a further issue (1/2017) is currently being prepared. The aim of the journal is to promote cultural studies research by publishing high-quality papers in German and English from a broad field and range of cultural studies. Paradigmatic analyses of historical and current phenomena as well as reconstructing and initiating pressing theoretical questions are the subject matter of the journal that hold the promise to advance research in the field of cultural studies. Alongside papers, reviews and conference reports, each issue contains a programmatic guest contribution of a renowned cultural studies researcher concerning specialized present-day controversies and topics. The languages offered for publication are German and English. The papers of the Kulturwissenschaftliche Zeitschrift undergo a double-blind review. The KWZ is published twice a year featuring an online issue (open access) by the De Gruyter publishing house. The KWZ appears as publishing organ of the KWG with the goal to enhance debates concerning cultural studies issues, theoretical approaches and concepts without thematic specifications. In scholarly exchange with international scientific discourses, own traditions of theory shall be critically examined by use of theory introduced internationally. The KWZ understands itself as forum for interdisciplinary communication. It is the aspiration of the journal regarding methodology and content to establish itself as central publication of cultural studies discussions in the German speaking scientific community. The KWZ sets itself the task to meta-reflexively accompany the emergence of trends in discourses and methodology in the field of cultural studies and to tie them to respective existing traditions. Different perspectives of individual disciplines are welcomed within the journal, yet they are incorporated into a multi-perspectival context of discussion. The KWZ critically questions essentialist and universalistic concepts of culture; its underlying concept starts from the premise that culture develops in negotiations—of scripts, convictions, and actions. As an assembly of permanent processes of translation, the academic analysis of culture calls for a transnational and transcultural approach. As the KWZ dedicates itself to this, the re-establishment of the journal contributes to a better understanding of the cultural grammars and technological conditions of actions/practice, orders and dynamics of societal change.
