The National Women’s Studies Association Journal invites proposals from scholars, practitioners, and activists who would like to edit a special issue or cluster for the NWSAJ. Through special issues and clusters, we continue NWSAJ’s tradition of focusing in an interdisciplinary way on topics that are critical to the understanding of women’s lives.
In order to promote exploration of various aspects of women’s lives, we welcome proposals in any area if they explicitly foreground the diversity of women’s experiences. For example, topics may include those related to race, ethnicity, generation/age, class, sexual orientation, national/international identification, and ability, as well as family membership, professional and community engagement, access to social services, globalization, and participation in political spheres.
