Feminist Formations: Special Issue on States of Emergency Call for Papers; General Call for Papers

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. See the general call for papers.

The editors are planning a special issue, Feminists Interrogate States of Emergency, for vol. 25 number 2 (2013). “This special issue will take up the concept of “states of emergency” as an object of feminist analysis. We seek essays that will interrogate the ways in which a ‘state of emergency,’ whether it be about economic scarcity, morality under siege, sexual violence or national security, is politically constructed and (re)produced through myriad technologies of power.” Papers are due Aug. 1, 2012. The full call for papers is here.
