[Ailist] Call for Papers

[Deborah Howard]

Hi All,

I'm writing because I am co-editing a special edition of the Tamara  
Journal for Critical Organizational Inquiry. We are looking for  
papers focusing on what OD and diversity consulting have accomplished  
in terms of systemic change for social justice and equity.  Please  
let me know if you are interested in submitting an article and I will  
provide more detailed information.

All the best,

Deb
