Rising East Online invites you to develop themes which we've started to address, make criticisms of positions taken by contributors, and initiate coverage which we would not otherwise have thought of. Unsolicited ideas are welcome, but please talk to the editor (a.calcutt@uel.ac.uk) before putting a lot of effort into writing them up.

This is true, but there is always something else playing a role, which has to do with the question of the relation between the city as global and the city as local.’
