Globalization : Starting Point of
Fundamental Changes in the World Vision
"EXPANDED SPACES:
DOORS OPEN TO GLOBALIZATION takes us on a journey imagined by literary and musical allusions – a “Magellanian” journey sauntering out into the material world of commercial roads, expanded spaces, sound scapes, memories of loved ones, and photographic captures of artistic journeys into the mind of the wanderer. The mix of poems, essays, journals is intimate, local and far out on the edges of time. The nomadic lives we are invited to explore move us from deeply felt losses to the intoxication of spiritual adventures infused with the powerful tensions and possibles that the new landscape of Globalization conveys.-"

ANTARES Publishing House is pleased to extend an invitation to submit academic or creative material related to exploring the multi-faceted process of Globalization. Texts submitted to EXPANDED SPACES should not exceed ten (10) pages in length. Texts will be considered and reviewed by ANTARES’ Editorial Board and they will be published in book format in November, 2020.
Submissions will be accepted in the Official Languages of Canada (English and French); also, in Spanish, Italian and Portuguese. Submissions in other languages will be considered, if translation in one of the above-mentioned languages can be made available.

The starting point of EXPANDED SPACES focuses on the first voyage around the world (Magellan circa 1519) and on globalization (Sir Frances Drake, circa 1580). However, it is not limited to these dates, nor to specific topics related to those times. Rather, the dates serve us as spring-boards to approach a great variety of topics, ranging from wide and general, to narrow and specific. Thus you are free to use your knowledge, your imagination and your creativity to explore the theme of globalization in any way you consider it relevant to enhance and lend it prominence in the world stage.
Contributions can be made on a wide gamut of topics related to Globalization. Some examples are:
• Changes and clashes in world views created by Globalization
• Globalization as a link to languages and cultures
• Globalization as the creator of new food intakes and eating patterns
• Globalization in the Arts and Literatures
• Globalization as an agent to foster world trade
• Globalization as the creator of religious rivalry
• Globalization and Technology
• Globalization in Music
