In order to provide doctoral students with ample opportunities to publish and enhance their writing skills at a very early stage in their careers, the Gießener Graduiertenzentrum Kulturwissenschaften (GGK) established its own interdisciplinary online review journal, KULT_online. The journal was launched in 2003 and, due to its great success and popularity, has become a model for other graduate publication media in Germany.

KULT_online appears once each semester and features reviews of books that are related to the broad field of the study of culture and have been published within the last two years. Of course, all doctoral and postdoctoral students are cordially invited to contribute! An advisory board of professors from different faculties further guarantees the quality of the reviews.
