Feminist Formations - An interdisciplinary, peer-reviewed Journal: Call for Papers
An interdisciplinary, peer-reviewed journal, that publishes innovative work by scholars, activists, artists, poets and practitioners in feminist, gender, and sexuality studies. The subject matter includes national, global, and transnational feminist thought and practice; the cultural and social politics of genders and sexualities; and historical and contemporary studies of gendered experience. The journal values established and emerging lines of inquiry and methods that engage the complexities of gender as implicated in forms of power such as race, ethnicity, class, nation, migration, ability, and religion.
Feminist Formations invites submissions that reflect the journal's mission to cultivate a forum where feminists from around the world articulate research, theory, activism, teaching, and learning.
