A Call for Papers is now open, until April 15th, 2021, for yet another issue of the Journal of Science and Technology of the Arts (JSTA), this time specially dedicated to new critical approaches in arts education. The guest editors in this issue are Pedro Alves and Catarina S. Martins.



In this JSTA special issue, the guest editors intend to pose one of the most difficult challenges that arts education faces today: how to build a place and status for arts education knowledge (in a still unequal struggle against other kinds of knowledge) and, simultaneously, how to do it from a critical standpoint, which does not assume for itself, from the outset, a privileged or exceptional place, which does not reproduce the hegemonic power relations it seeks to criticize, and which stimulates provocation and change instead of accommodation and homogenization. 



For this special issue of JSTA we seek articles and researches that lead, from criticism or practice, to a critical, diverse and current reflection on the problems and turbulences of arts education, under any of the following topics:



Histories of arts education

Critical pedagogical practices and theoretical approaches in arts education

Action and research methodologies in arts education

Political frameworks in arts education

Social and cultural frameworks in arts education

Anti-discriminatory perspectives in arts education

Submissions should follow the editorial guidelines of JSTA and are to be made through the journal’s website: https://revistas.ucp.pt/index.php/jsta/about/submissions.
