Call for Papers – Special Issue: Olympic Design

For this Special Issue, Professor Traganou seeks papers that examine the historical narratives of Olympic designs from 1896 to the present.  For more detailed information, please follow this link: http://www.oxfordjournals.org/our_journals/design/cfp2011.html.
